Recent Events - 2010

June Each year we hold Recognition Sunday as a time when we remember the children of St. Anne's and those who support them at our parish during the 10 AM service. During coffee hour, we have often have a special treat for children of all ages! An Ice Cream social!! Everyone loved it!
  The Annual Strawberry Festival was held on a hot Saturday morning and went until early afternoon. We had food, over 25 crafters and a cookie walk with over 1000 cookies to choose.
  We had great weather for the 2010 Annual St. Anne's Golf Tournament, with over 50 players participating. Best ball play, mulligans, and perhaps frustration (for some - OK, for all!) were at hand. Following the 9-holes, everyone sat down to a delicious cookout onsite at Swanson Meadows Golf Course in North Billerica.
May Early Communion workshop for children and their families from 9 AM to 12 noon. Children making early communion and their families - including grandparents, aunt, uncles, cousins, etc. are invited to come and explore communion using the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program.
  We held our first Blessing for Motorcycles service during the middle of the month. Several dozen riders showed up to participate. Everyone thought it went well. We look forward to doing it again next year.
  Many parishioners traveled up to the Barbara C. Harris CCC to walk around enjoy the grounds and lake as well as eat in the dining room. Everyone was able to see where some of the parish's children go to summer.
  The Men's Breakfast group hosted a Special Ladies Luncheon in Bixby Hall for all the women in the parish. Sandwiches, salad, quiches and the like - as well as desserts were served. Everyone received a rose as well. This was done in appreciation for all that the women do for the parish.
Lent Ash Wednesday began with the Ecumenical Luncheon, which St. Anne's hosted. There was also a service in the evening with Holy Communion and imposition of ashes.
January The Annual Meeting was held toward the end of the month. As usual, the parishioners made the potluck lunch wonderful. We thanked those whose time was up and welcomed those who were coming on to vestry.
Sundays, 9:15-9:45 AM, January - May Deacon Gay has been teaching a special art class for all children and youth from Kindergarten to high school. See the Youth/Children link for more information.
