~~~ Pet Blessing 2007 ~~~

St. Paul's "Blessing of the Animals" was held at 3pm on Saturday, October 6th. The Pet Blessing is held annually in honor of Saint Francis of Assisi. The weather was simply perfect and there was a good turnout which did include several out of town visitors. All animal lovers and pet owners are always welcome to join in this very special event.

Located in historic Salisbury, NC, St. Paul's Episcopal Church is on South Main Street only a mile or so south of Innes Street.
