Blessing of the Animals—Calling All Animal Lovers

Please join us in celebration of the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi for The Blessing of the Animals on Sunday, October 4th at 12 noon in the Church parking lot.  Please make sure all pets are secure/leased and we ask that you clean up after your pet.

The Feast of St. Francis is a day inspired by St. Francis of Assisi, whose life exemplified harmony between humans and nature.  Francis of Assisi was a poor man who astounded and inspired the Church by taking the Gospel literally—by actually following all that Jesus said and did, joyfully, without limit and without a mite of self-importance.
