Christopher has a terrific piece up at Episcopal Cafe on how prayer can and does connect us with our fellow creatures:
…to bless God for the life of just one animal, who has been a friend and companion, begins to have us think anew about our fellow creatures, about creation, about ourselves, about God. Such a gesture may be small, but it is significant step toward recognizing our coexistence with, our reliance upon, and our shared flesh as fellow creatures.
Amen!
UPDATE: Also via Christopher comes this wonderful sermon for the annual service of the
Anglican Society for the Welfare of Animals.
