May the luck of the Irish be with you this St. Patrick's Day and the best of luck to our adoptables on finding their forever homes at this event!

Second Chance Animal Rescue will host its St. Patrick's Day Adoption Event at Pet Valu in Amherstburg from 11am-2pm on Saturday, March 17. In addition to having our available dogs and cats on hand, we encourage you to bring in your own pets for a photo op in our "Kiss Me I'm Irish Kissing Booth!" We'll have a bunch of Irish-themed wearables to get them in the spirit of the celebration so that they look the part when it's time to be snapped!

We look forward to seeing you!

March 10, 10am-2pm, 2879 Riverside Dr., E, entrance at 229 Cadillac Street.

Informed Prayer. Prayerful Action. Imagine Christians from over 170 countries coming together in spirit, uniting on a common day to pray for relevant issues affecting women and children. This is a reality: the movement has been active for nearly 100 years. Each year, a different country writes the service materials. The World Day of Prayer is generally celebrated on the first Friday of March. This year, the writing country is Suriname: "All of God's Creation is Very Good".
