Blessing of the Animals

We had our annual St. Francis Day Blessing of the Animals this afternoon
in the columbarium garden outside the church.We had a great turn out, and not only did Holly get blessed, but Sasha
turned up at the end for her blessing of her own accord. But even more
amazing was the fact that Dorothee brought her snake Monty (Python) and
Crispy got to hold him- and so did Jackie! (those who know her will
understand how incredible that is- Jackie doesn't do snakes!)
