Blessing of the Pets

St Francis Day (4th Oct) was celebrated with the annual Blessing of the Pets at St Francis College. All creatures, great and small – and even some virtual ones - behaved beautifully as they were blessed then given a treat by the Rev’d Penny Jones.

A midday Eucharist, remembering Saint Francis’ devotion to God and his love for all of God's creation was also celebrated by College staff, alumni and friends and was followed by a shared lunch.
