Blessing of the Animals

October 12, 2024 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Please join us Saturday, October 12 from 1:00 pm until 2:00 pm, for our fifth-annual Blessing of the Animals event to commemorate the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi. Seminarian Khoa Tran from the Archdiocese of Baltimore will be at the Baltimore Humane Society Memorial Park to perform an in-person pet blessing for all household pets.

Sem. Khoa will be blessing the pets in attendance, as well as blessing the ashes of pets who have passed for families who wish to bring them. He will finish with a blessing for all of the pets in our cemetery.

All pets are welcome but small pets, cats and any pet who might become overwhelmed should be in a comfortable and secure pet carrier. Pet blessings will take place at the entrance to our historical memorial park, located at 1601 Nicodemus Road, Reisterstown. Some chairs and benches will be provided for those who are in line. 

There will be signs and plenty of parking. People of all faiths and beliefs are welcome.

 The event is free. Donations will be accepted. RSVPs are not required but are requested. All questions and RSVPs can be addressed to petlossconnect@bmorehumane.org. 

 We hope to see you there!
