Everyone is invited to attend our annual Blessing of the Animals on October 6.
Homemade food, live music, and a craft and gift bazaar will start at 1 pm. The Blessing ceremony will start at 2:30. Each pet will be blessed individually and receive a St. Francis of Assissi medal. Pets who are deceased, or unable to attend for health or other reasons, can still be blessed; just bring a photo or a momento that represents that pet. The Blessing is free for all. Please have dogs on leashes and cats in carriers or other secure device.
