Pet Blessings 2009
Around the United States (partial
list)
This is our 14th annual
Web listing of pet blessings and it's growing! Pet blessings are
happening around the world on or near October 4, the Feast of St.
Francis of Assisi. If you know of a blessing that is not on this
list please enter your
listing online or e-mail us at StAnthony@AmericanCatholic.org
We will post updates until October 4.
