Our Fifth Annual Blessing of the Animals will happen on Saturday October 4, at 2:00 pm out on the grassy area on the right side of the church (as you face the church from the parking lot).
All God's creatures are welcome to bring their humans for a brief (20 minutes or so) service in the tradition of St. Francis of Assisi including an individual blessing of each animal.
The service also includes a prayer remembering pets no longer with us.
And New This Year . . . Following the brief service of blessing, our Animal Therapy Ministry will be leading a short Prayer Walk. All God's Creatures - cats, rabbits, lizards, etc. or no pet - and their humans are invited to stay for the Prayer Walk.
