If you attended the 2023 Annual Conference in Hot Springs last month, many were given the opportunity to share and receive love from some of the therapy dogs of Pinnacle View UMC in Little Rock.
Led by Gayle Fiser, this ministry offers different trainings for pets and pet parents in the community. To see what current training classes are available, click here: https://pinnacleviewumc.org/mobile-explore/mobile-pets.html
Earlier this spring, Rev. Betsy Singleton Snyder, senior pastor of Pinnacle View UMC, Fiser, and other members of the ministry team wrote a proposal to the planning team for the 2023 Leadership Institue at Church of the Resurrection in Kansas City, MO (one of the largest United Methodist Churches in America).
Their efforts paid off because they received an invitation to offer a learning session for those people seeking to develop a pet ministry of their own.
“We are so excited!” Fiser shared. “We will offer this class during the pre-institute learning sessions at 3:15 pm.”

Please keep the Pet Ministry team in your prayers as they travel and present in September.
