(This is the latest Prayer Circle for Animals update.

In addition to the outrage, the city code prohibits both displaying the chickens and killing them in the city limits. A museum board member and I met with the artist. Her primary goal was to awaken people to the fact that they are eating individual animals with personalities and needs of their own-a goal very much like ours. She displayed grace and flexibility as she has altered her project to include no live chickens. She has agreed to allow us to speak about chicken's rights, display animal positive artwork, and include vegan options at the public meal. To read one of the many articles, click here.
This is more evidence that people are waking up to the needs and rights of animals as well as to the disconnection most of us have experienced between our food and our natural love and compassion for animals. Please keep this ongoing project in your prayers that it may serve to further awaken the hearts of people and save the lives of chickens everywhere.
Thank you for loving, for caring, for being a powerful force of compassion in this world that needs you so much.
May all beings, including all people, be happy and free.
With Love, peace, and gratitude from Judy
