Blessing of the Seeds, Flowers, and Crops – On the Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

The Church traditionally blesses seeds, seedlings, and flowers, marking the end of the summer harvest and the new planting season for the fall and winter. If you would like to bring seeds, seedlings, or flowers to be blessed by Father Reid, please plan to arrive early on Sunday, September 8th, and place them on the table in front of the first pew by 8:10 am.  Confessions will start at 7:30 am and end at 8:15 am to allow time for Father Reid to perform this blessing before Mass.
