Bring your pet(s) to be individually blessed in the Outdoor Classroom at 10:00 am on Saturday, October 6! If your pet does not play well with others, you may use a carrier or bring a picture of your pet. St. Francis of Assisi, whose feast day is October 4, was thought to be friendly and loving to all living creatures. He wrote a Canticle of the Creatures as an ode to God’s living things. “All praise to you, Oh Lord, for all these brother and sister creatures.”
