Blessing of the Animals 2023

In commemoration of the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi, St. Ann’s again invited the community to bring their pets, alive, stuffed or remembered, to be blessed, beginning with Family Church at 9:30 am. At 1:00 pm, there was an unprecedented turnout of parishioners and neighbors in the Peace Garden for a lively service of blessings and prayer. Click on an image for slideshow.
