PET CORNER
When the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and the birds of the air, he brought them to the man to see what he would call them; for that which the man called each of them would be its name.
Genesis 2:19
.
We are never nearer the heart of God than when we share our life with domestic pets. Everything from the heart of the animal operates in unconditional fashion, ever reminding us that God’s love, too, is unconditional. They are our family, those gifts from God that fill our world with such beauty and devotion. They are our link to an ancient harmony once kept in “The Garden” and a precursor to the unimagined beauty of the life promised.
What better place to offer insights and tips in caring for and sharing in the life of our pets than here.
We invite you to share with us, by visiting the STEWARD’S CORNER and sending us your stories, tips and pictures.

STOLEN PET ALERT!
One of our Facebook “fans” recently had their white, miniature schnauzer, “Khloe,” stolen from their vehicle. The abduction occurred Saturday, November 28th at 6:00p.m. in the parking lot of Calico Jacks in Tallahassee, Florida. The owners immediately called the police and filed a report, but have yet to locate her. Khloe is loved beyond words and her owners are truly heartbroken. If you have any helpful information that can reunite Khloe to her family, please CONTACT US, and we will forward the information directly to her owners.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
You can also visit Khloe’s Facebook page, Stolen N Tallahassee, to view pictures and get more information.
