Blessing of the Animals Feast day of St. Francis of Assisi	October 2, 2005 Events Menu
Resurrection celebrated the Feast of St. Frances with our annual Blessing of the Animals on Sunday, Oct. 2. We began with a "dog wash" with proceeds going to support the 2006 El Salvador Mission Trip. Some 85 people and their pets gathered for this year's blessing. Cash and a truck load of supplies were also gathered for the Oktibbeha County Humane Society. Matthew and Will Christiansen's sheep proved to be our more unusual animals for this year's blessings.
