Local churches to hold animal blessings on October 4
Original: Local churches plan animal blessings on October 4
Churches are preparing annual animal blessing services for October 4, the feast day of St Francis of Assisi, patron saint of animals. Pet owners are invited to bring dogs, cats and other animals to be blessed, a tradition that draws families and their pets each year and is promoted by local congregations ahead of the date.
Why now: The feast of St Francis of Assisi falls on October 4, when pet blessings are traditionally held.
