Why We Bless Our Animals | Children's Sermon | Mother Paige

This week, Mother Paige helps young listeners discover what it really means to use what we have to make the world better. Drawing from Jesus’ parable of the rich man who built bigger barns, she connects the lesson to the life of St. Francis—who gave away his wealth to rebuild the Church and care for all God’s creation.Through laughter, curiosity, and the wisdom of St. Francis, the sermon invites everyone to think about generosity, stewardship, and our call to love and protect animals and the earth. It’s a perfect message for Blessing of the Animals Sunday—and a reminder that God’s love extends to all creation.
