Our parish feast day - the Feast of Saints Joachim and Anne - is next Thursday (July 26). That means today (July 17) is nine days prior to the feast day, the traditional day for beginning a novena, a nine-day devotion asking a saint to intercede for us. A couple of links to novenas to St. Ann can be found below. Please consider joining your fellow parishioners in asking St. Ann to pray for the needs of our parish family!
