Annual Blessing of the Animals - Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi

The blessing of the animals celebrates the life of Saint Francis of Assisi, who said there’s beauty in all God’s creatures.

Please make sure each pet is leashed, caged or boxed so we will not have a "run away" celebration. You do not have to own a pet to enjoy this blessing; anyone may attend. Please tell your friends, especially the children.

The blessings of the animals will occur on the steps in front of the church
