Blessing of the Animals

Mount Olivet and Walker Chapel will host the Blessing of the Animals on October 20, 3 PM at Mount Olivet on the Green. We gather on this day as we remember St. Francis of Assisi who was a friend and protector of all animals, for a brief service of word and prayer including a blessing of our beloved pets. Treats for your pets and a special gift will be available. We invite everyone to bring your friends, family, and of course, your pets. If your pet(s) does not travel well, please come and bring a picture of your pet(s) instead.
