Bring your pet(s) for St. John the Baptist’s annual community-wide St. Francis’ Day Blessing of the Animals on the West Seattle High School parking lot. The Rev. Elise Johnstone will preside at the brief service and then, with Brother Paul Dahlke, OSF, will be blessing the animals.

Please have your pet on a leash or in a carrier. All pets welcome!
