PET BLESSING
Each year on the Sunday closest to Saint Francis Day, we offer a Pet Blessing and Pet Adoption. Bring your pets by for a blessing between 12pm and 3pm. Burgers and hot dogs will be available for sale - come for lunch, stay to play with your pets and meet the animals up for adoption (see below).
PET ADOPTION
Christ Episcopal Church/Pelham and the Humane Society of Westchester County invite you to a Pet Adoption Event in honor of the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals, on Sunday, Oct. 5 from noon-3pm.
Adopt a Friend - and give a homeless dog or cat a loving family and a warm, safe place to live.
Humane Society/Westchester staff will be onsite to help you meet, greet, and fall in love with the newest member of your family!
For more information, contact Christ Church at 914-738-5515. Donations of pet food, toys, and supplies will be gratefully accepted. 1415 Pelhamdale Ave. at Shore Road, Pelham, NY 10803.
This annual event honors the memory of St. Francis of Assisi, who said “Every creature in distress has the same right to be protected.”
