St. Francis was famous for his love of animals. In honor of his feast day, Deacon Tom will bless our beloved pets on the front lawn and courtyard of St. James Church. We'll have a short prayer service followed by an individual blessing.
All (well-behaved) creatures of our God and King are welcome on a leash or in a carrier... or bring a photo of your pet! Feel free to bring your friends and neighbors... whether their pets are Catholic or Protestant, we'll bless them all! :-) Hope to see you there!
