Blessing of the Animals

On Saturday, October 6, at 10:00am, in honor of the feast of St. Francis of Assisi, St. Mary Immaculate Parish is having a blessing of the Animals. We will meet outdoors in the northwest portion of the parking lot.


Bring your finned, furred, or feathered friends to this traditional celebration remembering the love that St. Francis had for all creatures. For  the safety of all people and animals, please be sure to leash, crate or contain all pets.
