May 7 – Blessing of the Pets

Sunday, May 7th at 10:30am – Outdoor Service

In church tradition, the Day of the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi, has become known as a day to bless animals. The link to St. Francis and blessing animals flows from his theological stance regarding the care of creation and a belief of the interconnectedness of all things.

At Beach United Church, we plan to engage in this tradition through an outdoor service on Sunday, May 7 at 10:30am.

Bring your pets! All are welcome – from cats to cockatiels; hamsters to hares!
