About this event

This weekend at Market and The Cathedral of St. Philip, we remember St. Francis by blessing animals — they are all part of God’s creation. We are blessing creation itself, and the animals represent that! On Saturday, October 3rd at 9:30am, join Rev. Julia Mitchener at the music tent to have your animal blessed. If your animal does not travel well or get along with others, bring a photograph or a stuffed animal to be blessed instead. And bring your animals to The Cathedral of St. Philip on Sunday, October 4th for the Feast of St. Francis! Clergy will bless animals in the Cloister Garden during the education hour (10:10–11 a.m.). You are also welcome to bring your animals to the 8:45 a.m. service that day in the Cathedral! CathedralATL.org On Saturdays shop over 70 local vendors, enjoy live music, chef pop up, children’s area, playground and more. Extra free parking at the garage across the street. PeachtreeRoadFarmersMarket.com/parking SNAP/EBT is accepted and we will double your benefits on fresh fruits and vegetables up to $50 weekly. Stop by the info booth to learn more!⠀ Saturdays, 8:30am – 12pm at The Cathedral of St. Philip 2744 Peachtree Rd. Atlanta, GA 30305
