Third Annual St. Francis Carnival set for October 5

It's that time again for the annual Saint Francis of Assisi Family Carnival which takes place this year, Saturday, October 5th from 12:00 noon-6:00 P.M. on the church grounds, 35 Norfield Road, Weston. Admission is free for all ages and $20 unlimited ride bracelets will be sold on site. The carnival kicks off with a blessing of the animals at 11:30 A.M. to celebrate the feast of St.Francis. All are welcome to bring pets to the church parking lot (you need not be a parishioner) where Father Michael Dunn will bless the animals with holy water while reciting a special prayer.
 St. Francis Pastor, Father Dunn is thrilled to host the carnival once again. "Our annual carnival is a wonderful family and community event and great fun for any age. Also, the early October timing, close to the feast of St. Francis which is October 4th, allows us to honor our Patron Saint with a special and fitting celebration".  Additional details can be found at www.sfaparish.com or by calling Sandra Jester, chairperson, at 203-247-2354.
