We are a small Episcopal Church on the banks of the Rappahannock in Port Royal, Virginia. We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional land of the first people of Port Royal, the Nandtaughtacund, and we respect and honor with gratitude the land itself, the legacy of the ancestors, and the life of the Rappahannock Tribe. Our mission statement is to do God’s Will in all that we do.

Blessing of the Animals, Oct. 2, 2010

We had about 15 dogs and 20 humans to attend the service. Festive treats were provided Elizabeth Heimbach (mouse cookies with licorice tails) and was helped by ;Terri Harrison who brought the dog biscuits. Cookie brought plants and a sweater with cats, which were luckily not chased by the dogs here. The weather was gorgeous with lots of sunshine and moderate temperatures.
