Catholicism 201 Course – Starting 11 January 2019
You may be considering becoming a Catholic or wanting to learn more about the foundations of Catholic faith, so that you can share yours with others more effectively. A small group has been meeting weekly Fridays 7PM. We share faith, fellowship, and food, with freedom fully to express your concerns, questions and views.
We are about to start a new course – Catholicism 201 – that covers the Catholic Church, the Seven Sacraments, Mary and the Saints, and Catholic Moral and Social Teaching. It is based on the Catechism of the Catholic Church, a personal copy of which is required for the course.
While we consider New Year's resolutions, please prayerfully consider if one you could make would be to deepen and strengthen your faith and that of others who are new to the faith by joining us for this course.

This weekend at St. Anne's is called "Service Sunday." It is a time when all parishioners are asked to consider participating in one of the Church's ministries as a volunteer.
Volunteer opportunities range from once a year (Parish Barbeque), to 3-4 times a school-year serving coffee and baked goods between masses (Hospitality Committee), to 2-3 Friday mornings a month getting the Chapel ready for Liturgies (Beautification Committee), to several times a year at times we are already in mass (Eucharistic Ministers, Acolytes, Readers, one of two Choirs, Ushers, & Greeters), to every school-session Sunday (Sunday School / CCD Teachers).
The sign-up sheets will be in the back of the Church after Mass.
Please reference the separate sheet accompanying this week's Bulletin that speaks more in detail about each Ministry that is seeking volunteers.
