Blessing of the Animals
October 4, 2026 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
Bring your two-legged, four-legged, scaly, furry, or feathered friends for a blessing to celebrate the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi.
We will offer prayers of thanksgiving and blessing for all creatures great and small. You may also bring a photo of a pet who may not like a crowd or a pet you once loved for whom you would like prayers.
