St. Ambrose Church recently issued the following announcement.
ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 3, in honor of St. Francis, patron saint of animals, we will observe the Blessing of Pets. We will gather in front of the Parish Center at 12:00PM and for the peacefulness of all, be sure your beloved pet is leashed or caged. In the event of inclement weather, you are asked to remain in your car and drive around the church circle and Monsignor will bless your pet in the car. We will also be accepting donations of pet food and supplies for the Hillside SPCA or if you would like to make a monetary or gift card donation to the Hillside SPCA, please place your gift in a plain envelope marked SPCA or Hillside and place in the Sunday Collection the weekend of October 3-4.
