    • Welcome to St. Anne’s Parish

      We are a Catholic Christian community rich in a tradition of giving and caring for its Church and its people.  Our mission is to inform and educate through our lived faith at St. Anne's.

      Through the course of each year, hundreds of parishioners volunteer their time and talents for the many special events and celebrations within our Parish.

      In addition, many of our parishioners are active on an ongoing basis in the ministries we see and experience every week as well as in those ministries that are not so outwardly visible.

      2 Corinthians 9:6 "Whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully."

    • Diocesan Prayer for Eucharistic Revival


      Lord Jesus Christ,
       
      Who by the gift of your Body and Blood are really present in our lives, 
      hear the prayers of the Church in Worcester.
      Give us the faith of your Church,
      confident in your presence in our Masses, our tabernacles and our lives.

      Give us the faith to offer our lives to you, joined with the perfect sacrifice,
      which you offered on the altar of the Cross.

      Good and loving Shepherd,
      teach us how to lead your children home, that we might long together
      to glorify your name at the Supper of the Lord.

      For you are Lord, forever and ever. 

      Amen.

    • INSPIRATIONAL THOUGHTS

      Faith is not maintained automatically.  It is not a "finished business" that we can simply take for granted.  The life of faith has to be constantly renewed.
                                     Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) from his book  
                                      Gospel, Catechesis, Catechism

       

    • PARISH ANNOUNCEMENTS


      ADORATION AND STATIONS OF THE CROSS DURING LENT

      Each Friday during the season of Lent beginning February 24, we will have silent Eucharistic Adoration from 5:30-6:30 P.M. in the Church followed by Stations of the Cross from 6:30-7:00 P.M.  We invite all in our Parish to consider spending time with the Lord in silence followed by walking with Christ on His way to the Cross as part of our spiritual preparation for the Easter season.

      PARTNERS IN CHARITY

      Once a year, we commit ourselves to this ongoing work by supporting this life-giving appeal. We reflect on God’s great generosity and respond with generous giving of our own. With your support, faith in action is visible every day in the compassionate outreach of Catholic Charities, to the least among us; in the prayerful witness of our retired priests and the joy of new priestly vocations; to the many diocesan ministries and programs that heal, teach and care for others. Watch the Appeal Video at home this week at www.partners-charity.net. If you have already made a gift to the 2023 appeal, we thank you. Your gift will help us in reaching our parish goal. You can also make your gift online at www.partners-charity.net. Thank you!
