PET OF THE WEEK

Body
WEEK Alpine Humane Society Pet of the Week is Rex. Hello, I’m Rex. I have a whole heap of get-up-and-go and I’m not short on affection either. Don’t be intimidated by my bark I know it’s quite loud but it’s just to make sure that you will be looking my way. Runs or walks…well who am I kidding? It’s going to be a run. I love, love, love it all. I also enjoy a good tub of water on a nice hot summer day. So, let’s go and adventure and hike with stops by the river for a dip.

Traditionally we have an annual conference in June where, among other business, the bishop sets the new assignments of clergy. So there are always Methodist preachers preaching first sermons in July, looking at what new chapter has begun. I am not moving this year, but I hear lots of conversations about new beginnings.
