Just a reminder that our annual Blessing of the Animals event is right around the corner. This beloved tradition is held in honour of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and ecology. Through this joyful service, we celebrate the gift of creation and the special bond we share with our animal companions.
All people and pets are welcome, but please keep them contained or on a leash.
During this event, each pet or stuffed animal that joins will receive a blessing. If you have a pet or stuffed animal that you would like us to pray for but they are unable to attend in-person, just bring a picture of them along and we’d be happy to provide the blessing.
Previous Years
You bring ‘em, we’ll bless ‘em! Take a dive through some of the animals we’ve had the honor to bless in previous years, including dogs, cats, guinea pig, and Jewel of the Halifax Police equine unit.
