The star of this year's blessing took center stage with his impressive vocals.

On the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi, it's lovely to think about all of God's creatures. And this brings us to the wonderful tradition that takes place at Worcester Cathedral in England every year in September to honor "all creatures great and small."

This year's Animal Blessing Service had an unlikely star: Pablo the Goat.

In a video that has now gone viral on social media, Pablo can be heard bleating along to the blessing with a particularly good bleat, and even showed some deep emotion.

Yet, it was the comments on TikTok that really made us smile. From one commenter imploring to "GET PABLO INTO THE CHOIR," and another saying, "Alpaca looked at him like “Pablo! Shh! We are in a church. man!”😂. Another person wrote, "Pablo got the spirit!"

Listening to him bleat, he certainly seems to be making the most of those impressive acoustics!
