IMPORTANT NOTICE 

ANY PARISHIONER THAT HAS NOT COMPLETED THE SAFE ENVIROMENT—VIRTUS TRAINING
WILL NOT BE ABLE TO VOLUNTEER IN ANY CAPACITY. *CONTACT PARISH OFFICE FOR INFORMATION

WELCOME TO ST. ANN CHURCH
We appreciate you celebrating with us. If you are not a registered member of our Parish Community and would like to be, please fill out a new Parishioner form to get started. Forms are located outside of the church office in the file holder. Drop it off in the collection basket, mail it in, or put back into file holder. Let’s get you started!

Flocknotes

Would you like to receive text notices about fellow parishioners, family and friends that are in need of prayers? Notify the church office, call or leave a message with a text phone #, and we will add you to the flocknote listing. These prayers do not come out very often so you will not be overwhelmed with notices.
  

CHURCH CLOSURES
PARISHIONERS WILL BE NOTIFIED BY FLOCKNOTES FOR ANY CLOSURES.
If you are a new Parishioner or have not been receiving church announcements by text / email, please notify the office to be added to Flocknotes. This is the easiest and most efficient way to communicate to all parishioners at once.

First Communion

If your child is ready to begin preparing for the Sacrament of First Communion, please contact Kathy Esbri to set up classes.   esbritk1Agmail.com or call the office Tuesday - Friday between 9 am and 4 pm at 660-438-3844.

Advertising Opportunities

If any business wants to advertise in our Church Bulletin, we have three spaces available right now

Church Classroom Schedule

There are now calendars outside of the two classrooms. Please feel free to put in your classes and meetings on these calendars so that everyone using the classrooms knows who is scheduled and when. Hope this helps.

The Kids’ Bulletin is here!

Please pick one up for your kids or grandkids. There is a new version every week that follows the readings of the Sunday Mass.  There are also coloring booklets.

HELP FELLOW PARISHIONERS ATTEND MASS & OTHER CHURCH ACTIVITIES

Please contact the parish office if you would like to be included in a transportation “rotation” to help give Parish members an opportunity to join us at Mass and receive the Holy Eucharist (Saturday or Sunday Mass flexibility).  The parishioners live in the Warsaw area so this may add an extra 5 - 15 minutes to your morning commute. 

Memorial Garden Bricks 

Reminder— engraved bricks can be purchased for the St. Ann Memorial Prayer Garden. If you would like to order an engraved stone for yourself or a loved one, please complete the order form which is available in the church lobby. Include your check and turn the form into the Parish office.

Orders will be accumulated and sent to the vendor once the minimum order requirement is reached.
 

MASS INTENTIONS   

Please consider a Mass intention for a loved one. Recommended donation is $10. 

We have lots of openings at this time

Blessings to all that help us fill the calendar through the year! 

OCIA

ARE YOU SOMEONE OR DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO…

Has expressed an interest in becoming Catholic? Was baptized Catholic as a child, but has not celebrated the Sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist?

We offer an opportunity to come together in a small group to learn more about our faith. Sessions focus on the teachings and experience of the Church and prepare individuals to celebrate the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist during the Easter season. You are welcome to participate in the process with your questions, your insights, and your faith story in a warm accepting setting. 

For information, please contact 

Lisa Kelley at 660-281-0199.

Breaking the Silence of Abuse 

As a Diocese, we are committed to breaking the silence of abuse. When someone is reporting abuse, we must acknowledge their pain and how difficult it is to talk about it. False allegations are very rare. Our initial response to someone who is disclosing abuse for the first time must be compassionate. For those who need to report abuse, encourage them to contact our Victims Assistance Coordinator, Jacqueline Baldwin, (573-694-3199) and to make use of the appropriate State of Missouri hotline (1-800-392-3738) or the Attorney General’s clergy abuse online form. All of this information is also on our website, under the ‘report abuse’ tab. For those who want information, or want you to convey a message to Bishop McKnight, please encourage them to write to us at reportabuse@diojeffcity.org.

LOST & FOUND

Please see Paula Billinger at the religious goods counter if you have lost anything in the Church. She noticed there was quite a few personal items that folks may want returned. Linda or Paula will direct you to the right location.

Locked Doors Behind You as You Enter the Church 

In an effort to improve security on Church premises, parishioners that use the back doors will be responsible for locking the door behind them when entering and leaving...and to turn off lights. If the front door is locked upon entering, be sure to lock the door behind you as you enter and leave. We apologize for any inconvenience, but the safety of our parishioners and visitors is our first and foremost priority. Those of you that help in the Church working in various capacities are very much appreciated and we give thanks for your time, talent, and treasures that you give so generously! Thank you for helping with this important request.  

St. Ann Prayer Group 

If you would like to be added to the prayer group, please email Linda at stannwarsaw1@gmail.com and provide your name and email address, and you will be added (or call parish office).   We welcome new members to join this important ministry of prayer for our fellow parishioners, their family, and friends. Prayer is powerful!!  

Hope Can Help!

"For Evangelization in the City

Let us pray that in large cities often marked by anonymity and loneliness we find new ways to proclaim the Gospel, discovering creative paths to build community."
