Collection for those in need:  Many low-income households are in need of items that cannot be purchased with SNAP benefits (food stamps.) Among these items are feminine hygiene products and diapers for children and adults. The collection will take place on the first Sunday of each month, St. Ann's will begin accepting donations of these items for distribution to Social Services, who will deliver them to those in need. Your help is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions please contact Deacon Mary Carol.

Reminder:  Please sit in every other pew.  A six-foot social distance should be maintained, and face coverings are required when not seated.  Please use hand sanitizer upon entering and before Communion. Please place your offering in the plate in the back of the church.

Please Pray Daily For:

                   
Fr. Neal, his family, and his leadership of the parish.  
That we may boldly and wisely proclaim the Gospel to reach those who don't know Christ and welcome them here to worship with us.
