A Blessing for Pets

Rev. Dr. Tony Clark
will be blessing pets
in the front yard of Lakewood Catholic Academy

Animals of all sizes are welcome.
Please bring pets in carriers or on leash and be aware of the other animals and owners. Pets that don’t travel well can be blessed using a photo or favorite toy of the pet.    Although a hands-on blessing is preferrable when possible, Tony will assess the animal’s behavior and discuss options with pet owners.

Note: there are a few animals that hit his allergies and he will let you know how he needs to interact with them.

Rev. Tony Clark brings a spiritual connection with nature to this Animal Blessing. Prior to entering the ministry, Dr. Clark practiced veterinary medicine. Although he is no longer licensed to practice medicine and cannot give medical advice, he brings his knowledge of handling animals and his passion for healing to this event. There will be a communal blessing of all animals, and then a chance for Tony to offer individual blessings.

Pet owners will receive a certificate of blessing.

Donations are welcome. Let us know you are coming!
