Do you ever wish you could bring your pet to church? You can! This beloved annual event is inspired by the truth that our pets bless our lives, so we should bless theirs, and the South Loop has one of Chicago’s largest concentrations of pets.
On the first Sunday in October, Grace joins Christians worldwide in celebrating the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of the environment and animals. An outdoor pet blessing is followed by fellowship and a worship service for all humans and furry friends.
