Holy Week

This Sunday is Passion Sunday, a day that commemorates the entrance of Jesus

into Jerusalem and the beginning of His passion, death and resurrection. Holy Week

is the most solemn week in the liturgical year. The liturgies of Holy Week are

powerful and beautiful. Please make an effort to participate in as many Holy Week

liturgies as you can. The schedule is as follows:

Thurs., Mar. 29 is Holy Thursday. The only Mass that will be celebrated that day is

the Mass of the Lord’s Supper at 7 p.m. This beautiful liturgy commemorates the

Lord’s last supper with His disciples and the institution of the Eucharist. Following

Mass, the Blessed Sacrament will be taken to Our Lady of Mercy Chapel. You are

invited to come and spend some time in prayer and meditation until Midnight.

Fri., Mar. 30 is Good Friday. It is a day of fasting and abstinence. No Mass is

celebrated on Good Friday. The Liturgy of the Passion begins at Noon. It includes the

reading of The Passion, the veneration of the cross and the distribution of Holy

Communion. There will be an opportunity for silent prayer in the church from 1 until

3 p.m. Confessions will be available from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. in the chapel. At 3 p.m.,

there will be Stations of the Cross in the church. After that, nothing takes place until

Saturday night. This time recalls the hours and days that Jesus spent in the tomb.

On Holy Saturday, Mar. 31, the Easter Vigil Mass will begin at 8:30 p.m. This is the

most solemn and beautiful liturgy that the Church celebrates. At this Mass, those

adults who have been preparing for the Sacraments of Initiation will be baptized,

confirmed and will receive the Eucharist for the first time. There is no other Mass

and no Confessions are heard on Holy Saturday.

On Easter Sunday, Apr. 1, Masses will be at 8 a.m., 10:30 a.m. & 12:30 p.m. in the

church, and 10:40 a.m. in Visitation Hall.

May you have a very happy and blessed Holy Week and Easter.

Sincerely Yours in Christ,

M

Spotlight on Stewardship

Helping Hands

Will you answer the call to be a Good Samaritan? In the

parable, Jesus tells us you should love your neighbor as

yourself. The Helping Hands Ministry demonstrates this

teaching perfectly! It is a ministry for anyone with a

current driver’s license and proof of automobile

insurance, who would be able to provide transportation to

and from Mass for St. Anne parishioners who may not be

able to drive themselves. We are currently seeking a new

leader for this ministry as well as more Helping Hands

ministers. If you are willing to step up and serve your

neighbor, please contact Kimberly Kaup in the parish

office at 706-561-8678. Ministers must be VIRTUS

trained.
