At St. Ann Catholic Church, the Sacraments are the heart of our spiritual life, guiding us through life's sacred moments from birth to eternal rest. These seven sacred rites, bestowed by Christ, mark our journey with grace and meaning:
- Baptism: Welcoming us into God's family.
- Reconciliation: Restoring us through God's mercy.
- Communion: Nourishing us with Christ's Body and Blood.
- Confirmation: Strengthening us with the Holy Spirit.
- Matrimony: Uniting couples in sacred love.
- Ordination: Calling individuals to serve as priests.
- Anointing of the Sick: Offering comfort and healing.
Baptism
Infant Baptism: We joyfully welcome little ones into God's family through Baptism. Parents and godparents are
required to attend preparation classes offered by our parish. Please fill out the baptism form and contact
our Pastor to begin this sacred journey.
Adult Baptism: Adults seeking Baptism are invited to join our faith formation classes tailored for this sacrament.
Please fill out the baptism form and contact the
parish office to learn more about the process and start your path to becoming part of our community.
Reconciliation
The Sacrament of Reconciliation, one of the two Sacraments of Healing,
is a sacred opportunity to experience God's mercy and forgiveness.
Also known as Confession or Penance through the ages,
this sacrament invites us to confess our sins, receive absolution, and be reconciled with God and the Church.
It is typically followed by participation in Communion, deepening our connection to Christ's grace.
First Holy Communion and Confirmation
The First Holy Communion classes are designed to prepare you for receiving the Eucharist,
a significant sacrament in the Catholic faith. The program typically includes learning about the meaning of the sacrament, its spiritual importance,
and practical preparation for the ceremony.
To enroll, contact our Parish Religious Education Director, Carol Davis, or
our Pastor. We look forward to guiding you through this sacred journey.
Holy Matrimony
