Blessing of the Animals on the Feast of St. Francis: On Friday, October 4, at 6 p.m., people are invited to bring their pets for a blessing by Fr. Miguel in the courtyard in front of the church's main entrance.
This annual tradition honors St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals, known for his love and compassion towards all living creatures. Fr. Miguel will offer prayers for the well-being and protection of the animals, as well as for their owners. The ceremony is a joyful celebration of the bond between humans and their beloved pets, recognizing the importance of animals in our lives. Participants can expect a meaningful and heartwarming experience as they gather with their furry friends to receive a special blessing.
