      Oh good Saint Ann,
      Mother of Mary,
      Grandmother of Jesus,
      Intercede before God
      for our families
      and their children.

      May one generation
      hand on to another
      faith in God’s promise
      and trust that He will
      do great things for those
      who reverence His name.

These resources promote the document, “Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship.”  Click here to read more: http://www.usccb.org/news/2012/12-072.cfm.
       

      HHS Birth Control Mandate updates

      Defend our religious freedom!

      The recent ruling by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) requires that most religious institutions provide free contraceptives and sterilizations via employee health programs. This is a grave threat to religious freedom in our country.

    • PRAYER FOR THE SUCCESS OF THE JOHN PAUL II CATHOLIC SCHOOL BUILDING PROJECT

      Holy St. Joseph, spouse of Mary, be mindful of the Catholics of Union County and our school building project. Pray for us; watch over us. Guardian of the paradise of the new Adam, provide for our temporal needs. Faithful guardian of the most precious of all treasures, we beseech you to bring this project to a happy end if it be for the glory of God and the good of our souls.   Amen.



















      Saint Ann School was opened in 1912.  We will soon celebrate our 100th anniversary. Because of the age of the building, the parishioners of St. Ann began discussing the need for a new school in 2005.  The parish, with the permission of Bishop McRaith, began purchasing property across Church Street with the vision of locating a new school there. In 2008 the St. Ann School Board, the school staff, the parish staff, the parish council, and finance council, each discussed what a new school for St. Ann should look like.  The proposed plans which you see here are the result of these discussions.  Nothing has been finally determined.  This is our dream.  To see more building plans, click here.
