CELEBRATE ST FRANCIS BLESSING OF PETS IN OCTOBER at both 8 am and 10 am

St. Francis of Assisi would go into the forest and pray and talk to the animals. It changed our relationship with our pets who become and share a part of us and our lives. A special day for them and FOR YOU! Let us Praise the Lord! Awesome indeed+ as holy water is sprinkled on your pet and a personal prayer over each pet from Bishop Gary Lillibridge, bringing  them into the family of God with His Infinite Love.
