This Sunday 9.30am, 2nd October at Swan Hill Anglican Church, 46 Splatt Street, we are Celebrating St Francis of Assisi: lover of all creation. We invite you to join us for the Blessing of Animals Service. This service is an expression of love, care and concern for all God’s creations – in particular, the animals.
Bring your pets – dogs, cats, ferrets, lizards, earthworms, fish, and birds … even large livestock are welcome on the paving outside the church.
All animals must be accompanied by their owners and be restrained for their own and others safety; on a leash or in a cage.
If your pet won’t be safe in such a setting, bring a photo or representative toy.
The service will be followed by morning tea.
