There are no Faith Formation classes this weekend due to the Labor Day holiday on Monday, Sept. 2. We hope you enjoy your long weekend and wish you safe travels if you are hitting the road! Classes will resume on Sunday, Sept. 8. If you have not registered your children, please contact the parish office as soon as possible so they can join our Faith Formation programs. The number is (806) 655-3302. You can also email Chris Hall for Pre-K-6th grade at [email protected]. For 7th-12th grades, please contact Angela Asbill at [email protected].

St. Ann's is fortunate to have a number of generous parishioners who have stepped up to become an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion, Lector, and/or Usher at our parish liturgies. As we do at least once a year, we will have a joint updating and troubleshooting meeting of all people CURRENTLY involved in these ministries after each of the Masses on the weekend of August 24-25 in the church. Please bring yourself as well as your questions to this meeting!

We are ​always in need of eager and reverent young people to be trained ​as Altar Servers. ​For new Altar Servers, training sessions will be held on Saturday, September 14, from 10 a.m.-noon in the church, and Wednesday, September 18 from 6:30-8:30 p.m. in the church. Boys and girls must have received the First Communion and be actively participating the the Catholic fundamentals of ​Mass on Sundays and Holy Days and Faith Formation classes. (Parents of potential new servers should sign ​up their child near the Good Shepherd statue in the narthex and take an Altar Server ​handbook for their child to study BEFORE they come to training.)

All available strong arms, legs, and backs are needed for a major moving back in day on Saturday, August 10, at 9 a.m. Please bring two-wheelers and dolly carts if you have them, as well as rags and dusting spray to clean up furniture from construction dust. Together we can do it!
