This morning Middle School students (and a few George Cottage friends, too) celebrated their pets at the annual Blessing of the Animals. This StM Middle School tradition dates back three decades and is a wonderful way our community honors God’s creation and all God’s creatures as well as the work of St. Francis of Assisi.
