PHOTOS: Local Church Blesses Pets, Meets ‘Outragehiss’ Animals
The annual event at the Church of the Good Shepherd was in celebration of the Feast Day of Saint Francis and Halloween
Fort Lee’s Church of the Good Shepherd celebrated its annual “Blessing of the Pets” Sunday with a worship service to which people were encouraged to bring their pets or dress up in animal costumes and an “exotic animal show” courtesy of Outragehiss Pets, a Chestnut Ridge, N.Y. organization dedicated to teaching children about wildlife, after the service.
Rev. Allison Moore said last week that the event is tied to both the Feast Day of Saint Francis, which is typically Oct. 4, and this year, to Halloween.
