Our community loves “fuzzies”!

So as many faith communities will be blessing their pets in honor of Saint Francis, who held deep love for all creatures – we will also take the opportunity to bless the animals, the plants, the sky and earth – and the fellow humans – that surround us!

You are invited to bring your beloved pets, plants, a photo of a pet who isn’t able to join in-person, or of a pet who has died.

We are partnering with Lincoln Street United Methodist Church for this special time of prayer and celebration.

The evening will start out in the Neahkahnie House backyard, on the east side of Portland.

Then we will move inside for a potluck dinner!

Rain location will either be pop-up tents or indoors for the entire event.

Please RSVP to rsvp@larche-portland.org to receive the Neahkahnie House address, let us know if you’ll bring a potluck dish, and anything that might be good to know about animals you might be bringing.
