Have you moved to Canyon or begun to attend St. Ann's on a regular basis in the last year? St. Ann's New Parishioners Welcome Weekends will be September 25-26 and October 2-3. We would love to help you register and take a photo of your and your family for our "Welcome" bulletin board. A blessing for new parishioners will also be offered at all Masses the same weekends. Pleace call us at the parish office at (806) 655-3302, and make sure we know you're here!

Our small groups will be starting back up next week, September 19-25. If you are already part of a group, your leader will contact you soon. If you are not part of a group, we will have some brand new groups starting up. Be on the lookout for sign-up sheets in the Narthex. If you are interested in leading or hosting a small group, please contact Angela Asbill at aasbill@stannsofcanyon.org

This year at St. Ann's, guest speakers will come as part of our Adult Faith Formation. Our first speaker, David Walker, will present "When East Meets West," a discussion on the Eastern Rites of the Catholic Church, on Wednesday, September 29, at 6:45 p.m. in the church. Refreshments will be served outside the parish offices from 6:30-6:45 p.m.

A Baptism Preparation session will be held on Tuesday, September 28 at 7 p.m. in the parish hall. This session is for those who are planning to have a son or daughter baptized in the next few months and those who have been invited to serve as a godparent. You must be a registered parishioner for at least three months or have a letter of active participation and good standing from your home parish in order to participate in this class.
