Blessing of the Animals

pet dog childOn October 1st, from 12:30 PM to 2 PM, we will host the annual Blessing of the Animals at St. John’s.  This is a community event, and there is no cost involved. Bring your pets, big or tiny, to receive a special blessing, and you will also receive a St. Francis medallion that you can place on collar or in a special place near to your pet.

Please have your pets on-leash or in a safe carrier, to protect them and other pets at the event.

In the past we have had small kittens to a horse.  So all animals that have great importance to you are welcome.

If the weather is lovely, we will be outside near the front doors of the church.  If the weather turns foul, we will be just inside the main double red doors to greet you.  And yes, your pets are welcome inside the church!

If you have questions, please feel free to use the comment area below and we will get back to you.
