As is our custom at Saint Patrick's, we will observe the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi on October 7, 2012 with an outdoor service and annual Blessing of the Animals. The 8:30 service will be held indoors and will be pet-free. The 10:30 service will be held in our outdoor worship space behind the Sanctuary (weather permitting). You are invited to bring your pets to receive a blessing from the clergy. Dogs should be kept on a leash, which cats and smaller animals should be kept in carriers. Bring lawn chairs or blankets to sit on. There will be a small amount of seating provided for folks who need more stable seating, or forget their lawn chairs. Mark your calendars and plan to join us!
