Join the Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley in giving thanks and remembrance for animals on Saturday, Oct. 4 at 10:30 a.m. with a service for the Blessing of the Animals.
Bring your family and leash-trained or kenneled pet to a service led by Pastor Woody Hall. Animals of every kind are invited to this special ceremony.
The service will feature prayer, readings, and music. Prayer will also be offered for the families of pets who have passed away, as well as all living animals. By request, a blessing will be offered for each individual pet that attends.
The service will be held in the Joyce Martin Education Center at the Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley (374 W. Orange Show Road, San Bernardino). This event is free to attend. Drinking water for pets will be available.
Participants are welcome to bring pet photos and mementos for sharing, as they celebrate, honor, and remember the precious animals that have blessed their lives with love and loyalty.
