In honor of St. Francis Day, we will be blessing the beloved pets in our lives during our 10:30am service on Sunday Oct 6!
Live animals, suitably restrained, are welcome to receive a blessing. If your pet(s) would not enjoy mixed company or cannot attend we can bless a photo, collar, toy or other memento of theirs.
The service will be outside on the lawn, weather permitting. Sunday School children will be with the whole congregation on outside for the service. The nursery will be open as usual.
Friends, family, visitors and neighbors are also invited to bring their pets for a blessing too!
If you would prefer an indoor and/or pet-free worship, the 8am service will be held as usual in the Chapel, without pet blessings.
