As an expression of our solidarity with our brethren suffering from the earthquake in Sichuan on 20 April, Cardinal John Tong is appealing to the faithful to pray for them and the rescue workers, as well as for our generous support in today's second collection for the emergency relief efforts to be undertaken with the collaboration of Caritas-Hong Kong and the partnership of the Church in Mainland China.

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament will be held at St. Anne's Church on Thursday mornings, 10:00AM-12:00PM.

All are invited for a quiet prayer experience in this devotion to the Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist.

The parish website is undergoing a facelift, and we are actively seeking photographic images depicting parish life, the many activities of our parish ministries, and, of course, the various special events that take place throughout the year.

St. Anne's is pleased to support the efforts of the Hong Kong Committee of Girl Scouts on Girl Scout Sunday next Sunday, March 10th.  

Girls all over the world will mark Girl Scouts Sunday by wearing their uniform to their family's worship service, and we encourage all of our Girl Scouts to participate.

The purpose of this special day is to reflect upon the importance of the words, “to serve God”, in the Girl Scout Promise.

This is a question that many people ask. Join with Nita Ng of the Jesuit Retreat House to explore and experience different ways of praying. It will invigorate you.

The workshop will take place on Sunday March 10^th from 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm in the parish hall.

Step away from all the rush and stress of your life and spend a few hours to explore inner peace.
