The Blessing of the Animals

A Blessing of the Animals will be held at Journey Church located at 19210 Patrick Henry Highway on Sunday, October 8^th from 2:00 – 3:00 PM. Annually now, on or around October 4, Christians worldwide celebrate the Feast of Saint Francis with a blessing of animals and prayers for creation. We encourage pet owners to bring their pets of all shapes and sizes to be blessed by Pastor Betsy Davis at this event inspired by St, Francis’s love for all creatures. A small donation of dog or cat food for the Amelia County Animal Shelter would be appreciated.
