Calling all dogs, cats, fish, turtles, lizards (with leashes and their owners, of course!) to our now TENTH annual Blessing of the Animals Service! Set near the commemoration day for Saint Francis of Assisi, known as the patron saint for animals, this brief, fun and contemporary service will be a great way to celebrate all those pets who provide so much joy and support in our lives. Worship will be weather permitting, held outside.
