Pet Blessing
Thursday, October 4, 2012 at 2:15 p.m.
Parking Lot in front of the School and the Statue of Saint Francis (rain or shine)
Our Lady of Peace School and Parish will have our annual Blessing of Pets on Thursday, October 4, 2012 at 2:15 p.m. The prayer service and blessing will take place in front of the school in front of the statue of Saint Francis (rain or shine). We ask students, who wish to have their pets (dogs, cats, birds, lizard, horses, etc.) blessed, ask their parents to bring their pets to the blessing. We ask that the parents who bring pets meet their children on the parking lot as they come out of the main entrance with their classes. If parents cannot attend, their children may bring a photograph or drawing of their pet to be blessed. Students whose parents are not able to attend should stay with their class's homeroom teacher. If, after the blessing, parents wish to take their children home with them they may do so, but must send a note to your child's homeroom teacher (for each child) to let them know. This is important as this will allow the homeroom teacher to make sure that your child is prepared to go home before they go to the parking lot. (Students may only leave early if their own parents or legal guardians take them and they have given a note to their homeroom teacher. Students will not be permitted to go home with another student's parent, unless this is a traditional daily routine, and this should be stated in the note from the child's parent. Thank you for your complete cooperation in this.) If going home with parents, students should take their book bags, etc. with them to the blessing. Do not place on the ground outside for obvious reasons. We ask that you do not park in front of the school as that is where people will be gathering. Please park on the parking lot west of the gym or east of the school. Thanks for your cooperation. Students not leaving with parents after the blessing will be dismissed at the regular time. |
