Blessing of Animals

September 29, 1:30-3:00pm

Donations Appreciated

Come feathered, furred, or finned! Join other animal lovers to celebrate the special grace that pets bring to our community. Whether your paws are padded, hoofed or webbed – all are welcome! Arrive with the ‘Top Dog’ or the ‘Purr-fect Feline’ and you will leave with your tail waggin’ friend and a blessed attitude. All are winners of a genuine blessing at “Assisi’s Best in Show”! A special dog will be a guest visitor along with his handler, Sgt. Chris Wallis, from the Olmsted County Sheriff’s Department.

Rochester Franciscan ‘Animal Whisperers’ will conduct the blessings in Canticle Park at Assisi Heights.
