Come one, come all to the 15th annual Ivy Chapel Blessing of the Animals. That’s right – all! Dogs, cats, ferrets, turtles… creatures of all sorts are welcome for a special afternoon celebrating God’s creatures.
Bring your pets (on a leash or in a cage, please) to Ivy Chapel (620 N. Woods Mill in Chesterfield) between 1 and 3 p.m. on Sept. 19. We’ll have refreshments both for humans and their companions.
This year we will be supporting Bi-State Pet Food Pantry. They work to keep pets and people together by providing pet food to low income families who would otherwise feel compelled to surrender or abandon their pet. In addition to monetary donations, dry pet food (even taped closed partial bags) will be accepted but the following are also desired: toys and treats for cats and dogs, pet beds, leashes, collars, bowls, cat litter and scratching posts, and wet food for both cats and dogs.
Questions? Send us an email and we’ll help you find the answer.
