St. Anne’s is proud of its active membership. In addition to the traditional Covered Dish
suppers, Box Socials, and annual
Christmas Party, the Sodality holds a
Communion Breakfast in May and a
Harvest Brunch in October.
The
Dessert and Card Party in November is a special favorite. For a small fee, parishioners and the public are invited to spend the evening playing favorite card or board games in a convivial atmosphere. Raffles and an extensive array of door prizes add to the excitement. Coffee, tea, and a spectacular dessert table round out the event.
The April Rummage and Bake Sale offers the public the opportunity to purchase gently-used clothing, house wares, and children’s items as well as baked items donated by Sodality members.
Also in April, the
Strawberry Festival features an evening of fresh strawberry shortcake and an addictive, fun-filled auction. Members laugh, joke, and attempt to outbid each other on inexpensive items donated especially for the event.
The
Saint Anne’s Novena (Triduum) is the highlight of our year. The Triduum consists of evening mass on July 24, 25, and 26. On July 25, we introduce our officers for the upcoming year and induct our new members. The Triduum culminates on July 26 with a candlelight ceremony and Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. Refreshments are served following the celebration.
