An open day at the Island Sanctuary, Delimara, will be held next Sunday from 10am onwards. This annual event is held to raise much-needed funds and to celebrate the feast of St Francis, patron saint of animals.
Various activities will be taking place throughout the day, ending with Mass at 4.30pm.
Those attending Mass are invited to bring their pets. All pets present, as well as the sanctuary dogs, will be blessed, and a token will be given to each family.
There will also be a surprise for those attending Mass.
Those who would like to help by baking cakes or cupcakes may e-mail islandsanctuaryfundraising@gmail.com for details. Any help provided would be greatly appreciated.
