Blessing of the Animals – Confessions of the Staff Pets
Blessing of the Animals Reception
Sun, Oct 6 @ 4 p.m.
in the West Parking Lot & SMES Porte-Cochere
From kittens to chickens, guppies to puppies, our clergy will be blessing all pets great and small. This free event celebrating the Feast of St. Francis is open to the entire community, so come and enjoy this wonderful annual Saint Michael and All Angels tradition. A short liturgy will be led by the clergy followed by individual pet blessings. Each pet will receive a lovely St. Francis medallion for their pet collar. Refreshments for pets and their humans will be served.
Does your pet have a “ruff” confession? You’re not alone! Our staff pets have a few confessions of their own!
