A Day to Celebrate! Blessing of the Animals
The Feast of Saint Francis is observed by Christians around the world every year on or about October 4 to commemorate the life of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment. St. Mark’s will celebrate this Feast on Saturday, September 25, 2021 from 10 AM to Noon with a special service in our parking lot located next to Girls’ Inc. Please bring your pets under restraint or in a pet carrier for a special blessing.
Please join us for this unique and uplifting interfaith service. We invite all members of the community to come together in giving thanks! You are invited to stay for a reception following the service.
