Wednesday, October 2, 2024, 5:30 p.m.
Garden Close

Come celebrate St. Francis Day! On October 2, our 5:30 service will include the blessing of the animals outside in the garden close.

We’ll say some prayers, hear the story of St Francis, pray for all creatures, and bless our animals. Bring your four-legged, scaly or feathery friends for a blessing (leashed or in carriers please). You can also bring photos of animals – even photos of animals who’ve passed on. And kids can bring stuffed animals for a blessing!

If it rains, we’ll move into the church and have a raucous indoor blessing. Come as you are, and stay after for dinner.

Engage! St. Francis and Creation Care6:30 p.m. – Library – After the blessing of the animals, join us for a conversation about St. Francis and creation care. Engage! cancelled this evening
