Oklahoma Conference of the United Methodist Church

Ministry in a Minute

10/2/2020

Tulsa-Boston Avenue held a Blessing of the Pets on Sept. 23 and on Sept. 27. The event was described as a time of saying thanks to God for beloved pets. Because of the pandemic, the occasion was offered as a drive-thru event. Participants pulled up with their pets in the car, and ministry leaders offered a prayer of blessing for every pet. A gift that included a blessing card and a bag of treats was also offered to each family. Photos submitted by Caitlin Dryke, the communications director for Tulsa-Boston Avenue.

The Oklahoma Conference held its first virtual Orders Meeting on Sept. 22. Worship was livestreamed on Facebook from OKC-New Covenant in the morning, and breakout sessions for clergy were held over Zoom in the afternoon. A recorded version of the worship service can be seen on the conference Facebook page.
