Join us to radiate Christ for another 100 years!
With the Grotto Dedication on Monday and the Parish Centennial Event next Saturday, we are at the halfway point in the celebration of Saint Ann's 100th Anniversary. More events are planned this summer and fall to salute the history and ongoing impact of this remarkable parish.
We are grateful to the many sponsors, featured below, Grotto donors, and other supporters who have made this 100th possible.

Saint Ann Novena
Pray this prayer every day for nine days with
a different daily intention.
Dearest St. Ann, we thank you for your love and
protection of our parish for the past
one hundred years. We bless you and
St. Joachim for giving us your daughter,
our mother Mary; for teaching her about
our heavenly Father and for her care of
Jesus during His life on Earth.
Your example and teaching inspired
her holy life and she was chosen by
God to become the mother of His son.
We implore your continued care and protection
of our parish, especially our children.
As you instructed Mary, help us to assist them
to grow in wisdom, age, and grace. We beg
you to ask Mary to lead us to a deeper
relationship with God and with one another.
We pray this through your intercession
and in the name of the Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit. Amen.
