Our parish Religious Education, Youth and Adult Ministry programs offer many opportunities for you and your family to continue your faith formation.
Families must be registered members of St Anne Parish.
Preschool children must be four years old by September 1st of the year in which the student is enrolling
Children beginning Kindergarten must be 5 by September 1st , etc
Children are placed in the same grade they attend in school. Special considerations are made when necessary
We try to provide small communities of faith where your child(ren) can grow in knowledge of their faith, understanding liturgy, moral formation, prayer, community life, and professing their faith in word and deed in reaching out to others. We work in partnership with you as you continue on the faith journey with your child(ren).
Christian Formation
Characteristics Of Whole Community Catechesis
Sunday Mass is the most important gathering of the Christian community.
The total parish is involved in learning and sharing about the faith.
Every age in the parish is involved, not just children and youth.
Christian home-making is very important. It is where faith happens on a continuing basis. Families are the domestic church.
Christian Formation is not an optional parish program with a beginning and an end. Continual faith formation is part of being Christian.
Christian Formation happens in many ways:
During the homily at Mass
At Liturgy of the Word with Children
In preparing for sacraments
During more structured sessions
In everyday household life
By reading articles and inserts like The Faith Connection
In web sites for children, youth, and adults
While doing service for others, whether as an individual or group,
a parish setting or in the family
In discussions with others

The rosary is a prayer that has at its core reverence for life. The prayer helps us to revere the gift of human life from the moment of conception until natural death. In our society today many false teaching and evils are proclaimed regarding human life.
