BEGINNING SCHOOL
………………

On Friday, October 5th, at 8:15 am, we will celebrate St. Francis of Assisi by honoring our pets. If you have a live pet that you can bring to this celebration, we would love to give it a blessing. This is an outdoor chapel service on the Beginning School Playground. If you bring a live pet, please make sure it is secured by a leash, crate, or box. The service will last about 30 minutes. If you do not have a living creature to bring for a blessing, your child may bring a special stuffed animal. The Blessing of the Pets is a wonderful Episcopalian tradition led by Father Ed.
