When is this event?
A blessing of the animals has long been associated with St Francis of Assisi. The Feast Day of St Francis falls on October 4th, so we are following in that tradition of blessing animals. We invite you to bring your animals to church on the 13th, so they can be blessed. However, we do understand the need to keep animals calm and unstressed, so if you feel unable to bring your animal along, bring a photo of them instead.
