The August 12, 2023 edition of the Freelance Star features an article about our St. Francis Pet Ministry on page 1. We want to thank pet therapy dogs Maggi and Tanner and their humans, Martha Clark and Linda Rooney, for participating in this story. These pets, as well as Jessi, our original pet therapy dog, have brought comfort to many over the years. You can often see them at our services and special events. The dogs and their owners, as well as the entire pet ministry team, touch many lives as they provide a variety of services to parishioners and community members alike. If you would like to make a donation to support this work, you may send a donation for the ministry to Christ Episcopal Church, 8951 Courthouse Road, Spotsylvania, Virginia, 22553
