The annual Blessing of the Animals will take place at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Natick (39. E. Central St.) at the Oct. 1, 10am service to celebrate the Feast of St. Francis. For animals that might not hack it through an entire indoor service, they are also welcome around 11:15am outside the church for a blessing.
Another chance for animals to get blessed comes on Oct. 15 at the St. Linus parking lot (119 Hartford St.) at 3pm.
In Wellesley, critters can come to St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church (79 Denton Rd.) on Sunday, Oct. 1 from 5-6pm and outside at Wellesley Hills Congregational Church (207 Washington St.) from 4-4:30pm. Stuffed animals and photos of pets are welcome, too.
If you attend services and are willing to share photos with us, please send to natickreport@gmail.com
