Blessing of Animals
Over the past weekend, several churches across Rockland County conducted a procession of animals in which dogs, cats, turtles, snakes and birds, are led to churches for a special ceremony called the Blessing of Pets. This custom is held in remembrance of St. Francis of Assisi’s love for all creatures. The memorial of St. Francis of Assisi falls on October 4.
