Frances, the pastoral pup

Frances the Pastoral Pup is a Goldendoodle who has been with St. Mark’s since 2018. A registered therapy dog, she is at the church most days where she brings joy and love to our staff and visitors. She also keeps busy providing comfort to patients and residents at various local care facilities. Frances spends evenings and weekends with her parish host family.

A very popular visitor at The Inn at Waveny, Waveny Care Center and Silver Hill Hospital, Frances is also available for home visits. Call the church office (203) 966-4515 or email info@stmarksnewcanaan.org to schedule a time.

Frances was recently awarded the “Paws-On” MVP Award from the New Canaan Community Foundation in recognition of her work at Waveny LifeCare Network.
