Updating Personal Wills

Every year before Summer, we encourage all parishioners to review their Wills and update them if necessary during the Summer months.  A well written and current Will is a loving gift to those who are suffering the great loss of one who is so close and intimate to them.  Especially important is reviewing the asset list upon which the Will is drawn.

Parish Collection for Middle East Christians

During Lent, the Parish of St. Anne's collected an amount of Hong Kong $169,550 for the direct benefit of Middle East Christians! 

That amount is more than mere assistance; it's a life-changer for a good number of persons we may never meet in this world. May their lives contribute to the peace and wellbeing of ours. 

Heartfelt gratitude to all who have sacrificially responded to this Lenten appeal on behalf of the most vulnerable among us. 

Sincerely, Fr. John.

Season of Lent

Season of Lent

If you are thinking of making sacrificial almsgiving a part of your Lenten practices this year, St. Anne's will again be collecting for direct assistance to Middle-Eastern Christians as almost all of them struggle to remain in the Middle-East; many of them waiting in refugee camps for repatriation back to their home countries, while a smaller number build new lives as immigrants.

There will be a special box for alms for this purpose at the back of the church after each of the weekend masses throughout Lent.
