St. Mary's Episcopal Church

About St Francis

We are celebrating the life and witness of St. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226). St. Francis is one of the most remarkable saints of the Church, known for living a life that so closely embodied Christ.

As part of the celebration, you are encouraged to bring your pets with you to church! After the service, the Blessing of the Animals will take place outside. If your pet doesn't play well with others or can't come for some other reason, you can bring a photograph to be blessed instead.

We will celebrate the wonderful feast of St Francis with pet blessings on the lawn outside after the service at 10:00am on Sunday, October 6th. Everyone is welcome.

If you need a ride to Mass, please contact the church office at 602-354-7540 so we can arrange one for you.
