Carpe Diem



franciscan monks
blessing the animals
lovely tradition




A few weeks ago I attended a Blessing of the animals at a Franciscan Church . I took these photos. Lovely day.

  1. How cool! Wish they did something like that around here.
    Ever watch the Vicar of Dibley -- when she blessed the pets and farm creatures? Reminds me of that episode -- could have been a disaster but it was really very lovely and sweet. :)

  3. Thank you Jen and Amrit. Glad you both enjoyed this one. Dawn French was hilarious as the Vicar of Dibley. We don't have women priests Jen... so not quite the same as that episode:)

  5. No... not in any lifetime . The basic tenets will never change.
