Eucharistic Training/Renewal Dates

Diocesan requirements state that all Eucharistic Ministers must renew their mandate every three years. In order to do so, all Eucharistic Ministers must go through training every three years. We are offering a general Eucharistic Minister training/renewal on Wednesday, June 7 at 7pm in the church. 

Due to the pandemic, all of St. Ann’s Eucharistic Ministers’ training for the chalice has expired. As such, those who are interested/willing/able to distribute the Blood of Christ need to attend ONE of the upcoming chalice training sessions: Tuesday, May 16 at 7pm OR Saturday, May 20 at 10am in the church. Please contact me if you would like the training, but are unable to make either of those sessions.

Teams of Our Lady

Teams of Our Lady is an amazing ministry! We would love for you to join us!

Wonder what Teams of Our Lady is all about?
Teams of Our Lady (“Teams”) is an international lay movement in the Catholic Church, designed to enrich marriage spirituality and make good marriages better. Small groups of 5-7 couples will meet in each other’s home for a meal and guided conversation.
If you are interested in joining, please attend a no-obligation informational meeting in the YAC on Sunday, May 21 after the 8:30am or 10:45am masses.

Adoration on Fridays Continues Through June

There is a Eucharistic Revival taking place across the United States.  At St. Ann’s, we will begin Adoration in our Chapel on Fridays from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm.

There are many, many, blessings associated with routine Adoration.  This is your chance to be a part of those blessings!

Road Closures

Due to water line improvements, the City of Midland will be closing “L” street.  On Wednesday, December 14th, “L” street north of Illinois Avenue will be closed.  On the following Monday, December 19th, “L” Street south of Illinois will be closed.  This is the street that runs between the church and the choir room/nursery.  For Saturday evening and Sunday Masses, all of the usual parking lots will be open, and the gates to the school blacktop will be open to facilitate traffic.  For school pickup and drop-off, please follow the instructions given to you by the school.

We know it is an inconvenience, but maintenance almost always is!  Thanks in advance for your understanding.

Messy Family Podcast -Date Night

When was the last time you went on a date night with your spouse?

Join the Messy Family Podcast for a conversation on Date Nights!

Your marriage is only as good as the work you put into it.

A child-centered marriage is a recipe for disaster. Teach children early that their “happiness” is not Mom or Dad’s reason for living.
~Breathing Grace, Everything I Know About Marriage in 200 Words or Less

How often to we take the time to show our spouse that they are “Number One” in our lives? Dedicated time alone without the children is an essential part of any healthy marriage. The foundation of your family is your marriage and we should never, ever take for granted that we are doing fine. In this episode we talk about the importance of a Date Night and Get Away Weekends. We also address two listener questions – one on toy guns and the other on how to have effective family time. Listen in and start the discussion on how and why we should all spend quality time with our beloved in order to improve our family life.
