On October 4 you are invited to bring your friendly furry friends (cats or dogs)—who enjoy this kind of thing—to church for our celebration of St. Francis Day and a Blessing of the Animals. If your non-human animal companion is not well-suited for this space, you are invited to bring a picture of them to place in the chapel. You may also bring a picture of any companions who have crossed the rainbow bridge who you wish to remember on this day honoring the whole interdependent circle of life. Each will receive a blessing. Water and treats will be provided.
