Bless Th Animals

Today is the Feast Day of St. Francis of Assisi.  It is a common practice to bless animals on this feast day.  Alas, all the priests of the Boulder Deanery here in Colorado are at a meeting, as are the Deacons.  So who will bless the animals?  Maybe this is the time when pet owners will take it upon themselves to bless their animals with water and a big hug.  I might set up a stand outside church for any animals that pass by and see if their owner wants a blessing.  But this will be cut short by the priest meeting.  Maybe the meeting time will be changed.  Check with your local clergy wherever you are in the country if you have a pet.  It is the Feast of St. Francis everywhere.
