Dear Lectors, 

Father Cuff has designated 2 September as Service Sunday. On that day, there will be sign-ups for the lector ministry.

I encourage you to sign up and if there are other family members including teenage children who might be interested, please encourage them to sign up too! Occasionally, we receive comments from visitors who remarked that the Proclaimed Word is of high quality in St Anne's.

Of course, there is room for improvement. We will arrange lector training sessions for everyone, new and old, to improve their reading skills in October. You will have a chance to practice reading and given feedback, and we will invite people who read well to demonstrate for us. 

To give you a taste of how to improve your reading, take a look at the Simple Suggestions for Reading Well attachment. The most important of all the points though is to PREPARE, PREPARE and PREPARE.

Finally, the September schedule is attached. If you cannot make your allotted time, please arrange for someone to replace you.

Thank you very much and God Bless!
Vivian

​The aim of the music ministry is to offer music as a form of worship and prayer for all parishioners, as well as for choir members ourselves. If you like music, you will enjoy being a part of this ministry. There are several groups/times to choose from - Saturday evening 6pm, 8:45 Sunday, 11:15 Sunday, Filipino Choir, and Legion of Mary Choir. Rehearsals generally take place one hour before mass. We welcome all vocalists and instrumentalists, including children and teenagers, and we especially need more keyboard and guitar accompanists.

The St. Anne's Filipino Community will again host the traditional May Crowning in honor of our Blessed Virgin Mary, the High Queen of Heaven and the Queen of May. In this regard, we would like to invite all parishioners to join us in this pious activity. It will be held on May 27^th at St. Anne's Church. The assembly time is 1:30 pm and the procession will start at exactly 2:00 pm followed by recitation of the Holy Rosary, singing Marian songs, flower offering and the crowning of our Blessed Lady. We will be reciting two mysteries wherein we will be making the petitions for PEACE and UNITY for the whole world.

If there are children boys and girls who want to dress up as angels and join in this activity, please contact Lorenda Rafanan in advance so that we can provide the appropriate attire for them. You can contact her at 9107-9805 or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. for further information. 

The music ministry needs another keyboard accompanist. If you play the piano and can volunteer to help us, even if only once a month, please contact me, Peggie Fitch, at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. You will find it a very rewarding way to offer your talents and give glory to God.  

 We are in need of an Altar Server Ministry Coordinator beginning in late August 2018. The position requires only a small time commitment, but is a very important to St. Anne's.

All you need is a computer (very basic computer skills), a couple of hours a month and a desire to serve your parish. All of the work is done via email with the exception of a 1.5 hour new acolyte training session in September. 

The training session is attended by Fr. Cuff and run by experienced Acolytes with the Coordinator's assistance. 

We have a lovely group of children and adults who form this ministry, most of whom are very experienced. The Coordinator position is predominantly of an administrative nature and very easily mastered. Thank you very much for considering taking on this ministry. 

Please contact Moka Quinlan at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with any questions regarding the position.

We are RECRUITING SINGERS for Confirmation on May 12th at 10am and First Holy Communion on May 19th at 10:30am.

Most of our regular music ministry members are not free to come on Saturdays, so we need singers from the parish community.

Let's come together to sing at these joyous occasions for the youth of our parish.

For more details, or to volunteer, please contact Peggie Fitch at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..  

Dear Lectors, 

Please find attached the schedule for May. I have accommodated all known absences. If you find you cannot make your assigned reading, please find a replacement through the group email at your earliest convenience.

Thank you

Vivian
