What a joyful celebration of God’s creation! In honor of the Feast Day of St. Francis of Assisi, beloved patron saint of animals and creation, our community gathered for the traditional Blessing of the Animals.
Families brought their beloved pets to receive a special blessing, giving thanks to God for the companionship, happiness, and unconditional love they bring into our lives.
May the example of St. Francis inspire us to care for all God’s creatures and to recognize the beauty of creation that surrounds us each day.
St. Francis of Assisi, pray for us!
