| St.
Francis - Patron Saint of Animals
St. Anthony - Patron Saint of lost Persons and items is on reverse side
Poorly dressed in
rough brown cloth, a small thin man taught others about compassion for
the smallest of creatures. St. Francis of Assisi chose to live in poverty,
devoting much of his life to animal welfare. One side of this pewter-like
medal for your pet depicts St. Francis blessing a dog. On the other side
is St. Anthony of Padua (Patron saint of lost things and the animal kingdom).
Today, we celebrate
the "Feast of St. Francis" on October 4th. Every Fall, over
1,000 pets are blessed at the feast of St. Francis at New York's Cathedral
of St. John the Devine.

Pray for My Pet
Good St. Francis, you loved all God's creatures. To you they were
your brothers and sisters. Help us follow your example of treating
every living thing with kindness. St. Francis, patron saint of animals,
watch over my pet and keep my companion safe. AMEN |
