In remembrance of Saint Francis of Assisi, we will bless the animals that bring joy and companionship to our lives! Bring your pet, or come without them to pray and bring a blessing home! Children who might not have a pet or those whose pet might have crossed the rainbow bridge are invited to bring their special stuffed animals for prayer and blessing as well.
Weather permitting, we will gather on the Patio at 2 pm. If there is rain, we will gather inside the parish hall.
