Blessed Be Thy Backpack, or Briefcase: Reverend Offers Service in Wayland
A church in Wayland is offering a little love and Jesus for your luggage.
WAYLAND, MA—Headed back to school, or to an especially trying week at work, or a vacation? You can get your bags blessed before you go, putting a little Jesus in your luggage.
All ages are welcome to bring a backpack, suitcase, briefcase or any type of bag to be blessed and tagged to be "reminded of how loved and valued we are," said the announcement.
Reverend Stephanie May and Kate Holland lead the service, which takes place on Sunday, Aug. 28, at the First Parish Church of Wayland at 10 a.m.
