Homily Highlight
CONVERT-ABLE?! - For the last two weekends I have been noting that one of the visual images that is sometimes used in car commercials featuring a convertible --- often it is the scene of a driver cruising through a scenic stretch of road by the shore with the top down, wind blowing through air --- it captures a sense of openness, freedom, possibilities, and exhilaration!
And I have been suggesting that the image of a “convertible” comes to mind as we look at the Gospel readings during these few weeks --- because these passages from Matthew’s Gospel challenge us as disciples of Jesus to honestly consider to what extent am I really “convert- able” and what does it take for real conversion to happen in my life? Conversion that – like the scene in the commercial – can bring me freedom, possibilities, exhilaration (otherwise known as joy)!
If we really want to be “convert-able”, then we need to remember the lesson from two weeks ago about the importance of PROCESS, and last week’s lesson about the importance of PATIENCE.

Parish Data Update
It has come to our attention that St Ann may not have the most up-to-date information on our parishioner families. To correct this situation, St Ann asks that each family participating at St Ann, whether a new family or long-standing family, help out the office by completing a Parish Data Update form. This form is available online , outside the Parish Office, at the entrances to the church, and by clicking the QR code in the pews. Thank you so much for your anticipated cooperation. We need the correct information on our families to help serve you better!
