Monday’s Blessing
Fr. Bill tells the children about St. Francis
The children did not seem to mind getting wet during the blessing
The animals were eagerly shielding the children from the generous blessing of Fr. Bill!
Fr. Bill did warn us that we would be getting wet
Fr. Bill also blessed baby dolls and their 'mamas,' too
Tuesday’s Blessing
Fr. Bill prepares the children for the story of Little Francis and the Wolf
Fr. Bill chooses a student to play Gubbio, the wolf
St. Francis takes the wolf into the village of Gubbio
It turns out that the wolf was just hungry -- not mean!
From then on, the villagers took care of their new friend, Gubbio
Gubbio, the wolf, never harmed another villager after that!
Fr. Bill prayed with the children and then blessed their real animals at home and the stuffed ones that they brought with them.
Fr. Bill makes sure that EVERYONE gets well blessed
The children and teachers of the Preschool thank Fr. Bill for coming to share the story of St. Francis with us and blessing us so liberally!
