In this episode, we sit down with Father Justin Briggle of Good Shepherd Episcopal Church to uncover the heartwarming story behind Harvest PawFest, a unique festival celebrating the deep bond between pets and their families. Originally an Oktoberfest event, Harvest PawFest has evolved into a community-wide gathering that includes the cherished tradition of blessing pets in honor of St. Francis of Assisi.
Father Justin shares touching stories of past pet blessings, from baby goats to hedgehogs, and explains the spiritual significance of these moments. We also get a behind-the-scenes look at the logistics of planning such an event and the joy it brings to the community.
This episode is filled with heartwarming examples of how pets embody love, forgiveness, and companionship, making Harvest PawFest more than just a celebration—it's a reminder of how pets enrich our lives and connect us as a community. Don’t miss this engaging conversation that’s bound to leave you smiling, and maybe even looking at your own pets in a new light.
