LCC K-9 Parish Comfort Dogs at Street Fest in Palatine |
 |
 |
 LCC K-9 Parish Comfort Dogs were invited by Immanuel Lutheran Church in Palatine to assist at their outreach booth at Street Fest in downtown Palatine Saturday and Sunday, August 28-29. A pack of LCC's K-9 Parish Comfort Dogs - Butter, Faith, Feurst, Hope, Leo, Star, Strudel, Tara, and Tillie - greeted individuals as they entered into the display tents for the Fest. Having the K-9 Parish Comfort Dogs at community events like this allows for evangelistic opportunities. The K-9s help to break down barriers and allow ministry conversations to take place. |

During the Street Fest in Palatine a former member of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Palatine stopped to visit with the LCC K-9 Parish Comfort Dogs. Diane shared that she was back in the area to attend her sister's funeral. One could tell from what she was sharing that her heart was heavy. The one who noticed the most was our very own Tara Sunday. Tara came right over to Diane to give her comfort and love. Diane sat down in the grass and eventually laid back and Tara just cuddled right alongside her for about 20 minutes.
