The annual blessing of the animals was held on October 4, 2024, the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, patron saint of animals. It was a picture-perfect day, too, for this happy occasion. Father Passenant and Father Antonin blessed a mix of small and large dogs, a cat, a few fine-feathered friends, two guinea pigs, and a turtle. Thank you all for gathering with us.
