In recognition of World Animal Day, in conjunction with St Francis of Assisi Day, we’re celebrating by blessing animals of Bellingham!

Come join us at Cornwall Park on Saturday, Oct. 5th, to offer a blessing to your animal companion(s). The blessing will be led by the found of the Wild Church, Victoria Loorz, and will entail a short ceremony followed by a personal blessing for each critter.

This is the fifth Animal Blessing hosted by Echoes. We've had dogs, cats, bunnies, a giant lizard...what will show up this year? ALL animals are welcome!

LOCATION: the large shelter at Cornwall Park, next to the kids water park and playground. A good working address is 3424 Meridian St. Map link here.

(Note: if your animal companion would be frightened by this event, please bring a photo instead so they can receive a blessing from a distance!)
