Our annual blessing of pets in commemoration of St. Francis of Assisi took place last Sunday, October 3rd at 11:00 o’clock Mass in the parish hall. Several pets were brought in for the blessing in commemoration of Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi (Oct. 4).
St. Francis believed based on the Holy Scripture in the ability of all animals to praise God. One of the Psalms is asking the nature, all creatures to praise God for his goodness. Therefore let us remember that we praise our God together with the nature and all creatures around us.
