This Saturday, October 3 Loaves and Fishes held our annual Blessing of the Animals at St. Francis Mission.  Thanks to Mother Karla Banach for joining in on the festivities and welcoming so many beloved pets both in person and in spirit.  We also welcomed back Brittani from STAY, Inc. who was available to assist our guests with issues such as housing and insurance.  Her two sons, Carter and Jackson, were eager to help assemble Pantry Bags, hand out pet food and treat bags and serve up lemonade, cake and cupcakes to our guests.
