Blessing of the Animals
Celebrating St. Francis of Assisi’s Feast Day
Advent’s
Blessing of
the Animals
The First Sunday in October (Oct. 3, 2010)
1:00 p.m. - East Lawn by Meditation Garden
As in previous years, Advent member veterinarians,
Dr. Bo Thompson (with assistant Toni Lewin) and
Dr. Bonny Dechant will provide wellness checks for your companion pets. Please bring your animals
"suitably restrained” for group interactions!
If you have lost a companion pet in the past year, you are invited to bring a small stone, prepared with your animal’s name or other fitting tribute, to add to the “Pet Rock Garden” by the arched bridge. Take a look and see what others have done if you need some ideas.
