The Blessing of Stuffed Animals
Our first celebration was the Pet Parade honoring St. Francis of Assisi's Feast Day. We had the opportunity to participate in Little Vineyard's Pet Parade, to which each Kindergarten student brought in a stuffed animal to have blessed by our Preschool Director, Mrs. Cortez. The children were able to parade around with their "pets" and then keep their stuffed animals with them in class all day. This was a very exciting experience for all!
