Wednesday October 4th is a day dedicated to St. Francis of Assisi. He is known for his many miracles involving animals, birds and injured people. St. Francis is also the Patron Saint of Ecology. Ecological environment is a place that we live in and we need to be concerned for our environment and earth. Bring your friends—animals for a blessing that will take place at 6:30 p.m. in front of the church. As a nice gesture and gratitude for the blessing, please bring an item of food for dogs, cats, or birds that we will donate to the Humane Society.
