Once a year in early October, St. John's joins Christians around the world in celebrating the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of the environment and animals. On Sunday, October 4th at both 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. we will enjoy an outdoor worship service with a Pet Blessing in our garden (and if it's raining we will do it inside!) Your pet is a blessing in your life, so bring them to get blessed at this service designed for animals and their humans.
