St. Paul United Methodist had a donkey at church today. The congregation gathered outside, and the children waved palms (some sword fought with them). We processed around the outside of the church and stopped at the side entrance. The adults entered inside and sat down. The children came in behind the choir when the service started.

Everyone enjoyed petting the donkey who was very kind and patient. Here is a picture of my husband and two children saying hello to the donkey (who was temporarily named Christopher for the service).
