Sunday Pet Blessing

PLEASE JOIN US AS WE CELELBRATE

THE PET BLESSING ON ST. FRANCIS DAY

EPISCOPAL CHURCH OF THE REDEEMER

SUNDAY AFTERNOON 4:00 PM

OCTOBER 3, 2010

We hope you will join us on our "barking lot" and bring your pet(s) to be

blessed on this festive day. Each pet will receive a blessing and their

very own St. Francis Pet ID Tag and Personalized Commemorative Certificate

as free gifts from your neighborhood church. Help us celebrate this

wonderful tradition.

St. Francis is an historical figure; the son of a wealthy man, who gave up

untold riches to serve the poor and be a voice for those who were less

fortunate. St. Francis is the saint known as a lover of creation and

animals.

As we are in town near traffic, we ask that you keep your dog on a leash and

your cat or other small animal in a carrier for their own safety.

Here's some shots of the past years' Pet Blessings.
