To honor St. Francis, the founder of the Franciscan Order, a friend of all creatures, and patron saint of ecology, St. Peter’s Church (1533 E. 17th) invites you to join us for a traditional Blessing of the Animals at the church on Monday evening, October 4th at 7:00 PM.

We will gather where best on the property depending upon the weather and the number of animals waiting for their blessing. We’ll have cider and “treats”, too.

Donations will be accepted to support PAWS Ohio and its mission for caring for animals in need. All are welcome.
