***2023 Annual Reports for St. Ann and St. John

UPCOMING EVENTS

***FELLOWSHIP HOUR: Saturday 9/23
Join us after the 4 pm Mass on 9/23 for a Fellowship period to connect with fellow parishioners before you head out to dinner. There will be crackers and cheese, fruit and drinks so it's the perfect (and a free) appetizer! We will be set up in the rose garden between the church and the rectory.

Sponsored by our Disciples of Hospitality.

***VOLUNTEER DRIVE - THIS WEEKEND
After all the Masses on the weekends of September 23-24 and September 30 October 1 we will be holding a Volunteer Drive. As we work to expand our ministries and revive some that have been dormant since the Covid shutdown, we need many more volunteers to make this possible. Please stop by the table to learn about the ways in which you can help our collaborative better minister to all those whom we serve.

In the next few weeks, we will be running a ministry spotlight in the bulletin so you can learn more about our ministries.

All current volunteers should plan on stopping by the table so that they can fill out their paperwork for this fiscal year.

October Family Mass
Next Sunday, October 1st at the 9:30 Mass is our first Family Mass. We invite our children to serve as readers and gift bearers, and Fr. Paul will call the kids up to the altar for the homily. After Mass there will be coffee and donuts under the tent in the Rose Garden. If your child would like to do a reading or bring up the gifts, please email Matt Brady.

***Ministry Spotlight: Bereavement Ministry
This team works with grieving families to plan funerals and provide pastoral support during the grieving period. We also need people to help Fr. Paul during funeral Masses.
