This post consists of a block of descriptive text above a two-panel side-by-side photo collage set inside a church. The top text explains that a Brazilian priest runs a stray dog rescue program: he picks up abandoned dogs from the streets, feeds and bathes them, then features one dog at each of his Masses to be adopted by members of the congregation, with dozens of dogs already finding permanent homes because of his work. The left panel shows the priest, wearing white embroidered ceremonial vestments and holding a microphone, as an excited dark-furred stray dog stands on its hind legs reaching up toward him with its paws. The right panel shows the same priest standing at the church altar, with the same dog now sitting calmly and politely at his feet during the service, ready to be presented for adoption. The post's original title references a pun: the phrase 'doing God's work' is commonly used figuratively to describe kind, helpful actions, but here it is also literal, as the priest is a member of the clergy who officially works in service of God while performing these kind acts.
