LOVE AND DEATH
The Gospel for Sunday declares that “Jesus loved Martha and Mary, her sister, and their brother, Lazarus,”
who lived in Bethany.
This is a golden statement. It tells us so much about Jesus and his personal friendships. But, it also emphasizes how very odd it was that, while Lazarus was sick unto death, Jesus camped out a fairly short distance from Bethany and would not go to heal or even see his friend. Urgent messages arrived. An easy
journey. But no.
His reason? “This illness is not to end in death,” he says.
How wrong he was! Lazarus’ illness led directly to death!
When Lazarus had finally died, Jesus at last did go down to Bethany. Lazarus had been in the tomb for four
days. Martha ran to Jesus and finally, she secretly went back for Mary who was so grieved she could not
leave the house. Both went back and cried out to their friend, Jesus, “If you had been here, my brother
would not have died!”
Jesus saw Mary’s tears and those of the friends who had gathered, and we are privileged to a touching
revelation of Jesus’ love. We hear the striking words that are recorded only one other time in the Gospels:
“And Jesus wept.”
His tears make Mary and Martha’s question even more poignant. “You love us, and you loved him; why
did you not come and cure him while there was still time?” I think many of us ask God such a question
when a loved one dies. Jesus asked it from the cross: “God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
Pretend that you are asking this last question directly to Jesus right now. Listen to whatever answer
comes. Take your time. If what you hear is fruitful, stay with it.
For my part, I hear Jesus saying this: Friend, I know that life, love and death are hard for you to face. I will
reveal to you in the flesh what they mean, but, of course, even my example can be ambiguous to you.
Not only life but even sorrow and even death are given by God’s gentle love. All three are like flowers
pushing up from the earth. The ground from which they grow is God’s tender love. Human kindness
gets its being from God’s love. Even life gets its life from God’s love. Even death gets its life from God’s
love.
At this point, you and I, startled, interrupt and say, but how can death receive life? Death is the end of life.
What are you talking about?
Jesus replies that there are many beautiful plants and trees, figuratively, that come forth from God’s love.
Life is surely one of them, he says. But death is too, and suffering. Let me demonstrate, he says.
He calls out in a loud voice, calls into the soil of God-love where Lazarus’ soul is buried. From this womb
of love, Lazarus’s death gestates into life. Up from the tomb he comes.
Jesus continues: You think of love as something you can have because you are alive. But the opposite is
true. Life is something you can have because you are rooted in love. Death does not erase love; it brings
you more deeply back to it, to the place you came from—love’s rich loam.
Pray about it, Jesus says, because that is the reason I delayed coming to Bethany.

Human Concerns
The following information comes from Fr.
Peter’s presentation to Saint Anne parishioners on Sunday, March 16th.
FACTS
• Uganda is home to Lake Victoria,
the world’s largest fresh water
lake
• The population is over 34 million
• Uganda lies on the equator so
there are equal hours of day and
night
• Temperatures range between 65
to 85 degrees Fahrenheit
• Only two seasons: wet and dry
Lenten Almsgiving
Exploring Uganda with
Fr. Peter Mukasa - Part I
ECONOMY
• Farming is the main activity in
Uganda. Little mechanization:
hoes/cultivators
• People in villages grow their own
food for their families
• About 80% of population do not
work off their farm
• They survive by subsistence
farming and the little money they
can bring in from brick making,
stone grinding, charcoal burning,
beer brewing, etc.
PEOPLE
• Uganda has 56 ethnic groups
with over 50 different
languages (not dialectics)
• English is the official language
• Luganda is the most widely
spoken language in Uganda
• Each ethnic group has its own
language, customs, norms,
cultural values (dress,
behaviors, music, dance, etc.)
TRANSPORTATION
• Transportation is problematic
• Bicycles are the most common
means of transport
• Very few people have cars or
motorbikes
• Roads are impassable during
rainy season
• The majority of people walk to
church, school, clinic/hospital
and water sources like village
wells and boreholes, etc.

Almsgiving for the
Nakasongola Health
Clinic as of
Sunday, March 30th
EDUCATION
• There are few decent school
buildings; some classes are
conducted under shade trees
• Most schools do not have
electricity, computers, internet,
libraries or washrooms
• Computer literacy in primary
schools and high schools is still a
nightmare
• Primary schools have a studentteacher ratio of 80 to 1
• People don’t have access to clean
water, health care services and
good schools
• The majority of people must walk
at least 4 miles to access services
• Most of the schools lack
facilities and equipment;
hospitals lack even the most basic
drugs and dressings
• Teachers and nurses go without
pay two to three months at a time
• “After my ordination to priesthood, I was much moved by the
sufferings of sick people who
walked long distances
especially the expectant mothers
who found it difficult to access
the maternity services.”
• Most women must deliver their
babies at home without a
medical nurse or doctor
• There is little support of
medical care by the
government. Parishes must
develop and support their own
clinics.
• The parish clinic at
Nakasongola was in a
devastating state with torn
mattresses, no bed sheets,
mosquito nets or blankets, etc.
• It was small, with only one
general ward where all patients
were admitted without
separation of men or women and
children. Everyone was treated
in the same room.

Faith Formation and Education
THE JOURNEY FROM PALM SUNDAY TO GOOD FRIDAY
Jesus rode into Jerusalem to crowds of people excited by his very presence. How quickly these same
people, along with some of his closest disciples, turned on Him.
Jesus knew what was to come and chose to stay true to His mission to save us rather than to save
himself. Do we have that same level of conviction? Is it possible to remain steadfast in your mission
when those closest to you have betrayed you? How do we find the strength to stay true to our values, especially when those around us are not supportive?
At our April Community Event, we will explore Jesus’ journey to the cross and learn how to support others and ourselves during difficult times.
To address these questions and more, we look forward to welcoming Amy Florian as our guest
speaker. Ms. Florian is a nationally recognized speaker, teacher and retreat director who uses her
personal experience along with the best of current research for her engaging and dynamic presentations. She is a liturgy and bereavement consultant who holds a Master’s Degree in Pastoral Studies
and a Fellow in Thanatology (the highest level of certification in the field of death and grief studies). She founded Corgenius, a company that teaches professionals how to better serve people in
times of transition and loss and teaches in the graduate ministry department of Loyola University in
Chicago. Amy has published over ninety articles and two books and has a passion for helping people pray, heal and live fully.
Whether you are an individual, couple or family, when we experience
and share our faith together as community, we are all richer for the experience.

Saint Anne Adult Faith Formation presents
FILMS OF FAITH
Thursday, April 10th
1:00 – 2:00 p.m.
Hospitality Room
THE THIRD DAY
(What if…a man had risen from the dead 2,000 years ago?)
On the third day after Jesus’ crucifixion, eyewitnesses reported that they found an empty tomb and had an
encounter with a living, breathing Jesus of Nazareth. This documentary investigates these questions:
•
•
•
•
Did the resurrection really happen?
Was Jesus only seemingly dead when his body was placed in the tomb?
Did the disciples steal the body?
Were they hallucinating when they saw him alive or did they simply create a myth in order to keep
the movement going?
By asking tough questions about the authenticity of the original accounts and seeming contradictions
among the four Gospels, The Third Day sheds light on the greatest mystery of all time. This honest and
insightful documentary will intrigue both skeptics and believers. Everyone is welcome!
THE REASSURANCE OF GOD
By Sister Lauretta Leipzig, Pastoral Associate/Director of Adult Education
In Psalm 145, Isaiah prays: “The Lord is gracious
and merciful.”
Do we really need reassurance? I think most of us
do, at least sometimes. When things get difficult,
we begin to doubt ourselves. When uncertainty
arises or when we are facing sickness, loss or challenge, fear also may arise. In such times, this psalm
has power. Perhaps we might even try to bring it to
memory so that, in our subconscious, it is always
available.
The reassurance we need is not that we can handle
it but that God can and God will act with unlimited
and ready compassion for our situation. Our God
is a loving God! When things are going well, it’s
easy to know and appreciate that. But when things
are going less well, as we see it, we can and must
remember this.
8
Often, we are closed to God’s gifts unless we first
see a miracle. Many of us demand proof or signs
before we open our hearts to see God’s ways in our
lives. We don’t have to wait for a crisis. We need
to practice opening our hearts every day, every
hour and be willing to receive what God is actually
eager to give us. After all, everything comes from
Divine Love even when we don’t understand those
gifts until a later time.
We are so blessed – never out of God’s awareness.
And God’s awareness is nothing but love – absolutely nothing but love! We can depend on this
truth. We can act upon this truth. Isaiah’s prayer
reminds us how gracious and merciful is our God,
but in another reading of Isaiah, he also tells us that
our name is carved on the palm of God’s hand.
What a powerful image! How assuring is the fact
that we and every moment of our lives are held in
the grasp of God’s hand. That is something that we
must not forget. Hang on to this reassurance at the
times when we especially need it.
JOIN US AT THE EASTER VIGIL CELEBRATION!
Please join the participants in the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) for the
celebration of the greatest feast of our Church year, Easter Vigil Mass, on Holy Saturday,
April 19th, at 7:30 p.m.
For the Elect and Candidates, this will be the culmination of more than a year of learning
about the word of God, the teachings of the Church, the community, prayer and apostolic
works of service for others. The Bishop at Holy Name Cathedral personally recognized their spiritual
preparation at a formal service on March 2nd. The Elect is ready to receive the Sacraments of Initiation
(Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist), and the Candidates are ready to be received into full Communion
with the Catholic Church.
For the Saint Anne Community, it has been a wonderful opportunity to journey with them, opening ourselves to experiencing Lent at its fullest, growing in our faith and deepening our conversion. We look forward to the beautiful Easter Vigil Mass during which we join in renewing our commitment in faith to the
service of the Risen Lord. The service is a moving experience that we all will long remember and cherish.
There will be a reception in honor of our new Catholics immediately following the Mass in the cafeteria on
the lower level of the Church. We ask that you bring a dish to share, and join us at this reception for our new
Catholics!
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing,
so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” (Romans 15:13)
When you have made a decision that disappoints your child,
how many times have you heard “you don’t care about me?”
It can be so difficult to know we are upsetting our kids, but in
reality, they typically do know the difference between what they
want and what is best. They depend on us to keep them on track
and provide the self control that they do not yet possess.
While they will often complain to check and make sure you
really mean it, they know in their hearts that you are making
the choice because you love and care about them. Unsure?
Ask your child.
Opportunities to pass on our Catholic faith occur every day in a
variety of ways; we just need to develop the habit of including
God’s word and His loving care in those moments.
Parenting is a journey filled with joys and challenges,
pray for what you need; strength, courage, empathy, wisdom –
God will provide.
For ideas on ways to bring our faith home and to make it a lived and shared
experience for your family, visit www.CatholicParentsChicago.org..

Dear people of Saint Anne,
It is with mixed emotions that I am announcing my decision to resign as Associate
Director of Children’s Faith Formation. It is not easy to try and use the wisdom that
comes from the Spirit and the Word as I seek to discern which steps to take in life,
but I do trust that it is time for me to move on so I can be more attentive to the needs
of my family.
As you many of you may know, my husband and I relocated to the Midwest so we
could be closer to our family in Northwest Indiana and help with the needs of our
aging parents. While we were hopeful that living in the Northwest suburbs would
allow us to play a more active role in our family’s support system, we found my husband’s inability to secure employment in Illinois, coupled with the high cost of living
here, to be too challenging to manage.
In January 2013, my husband and I purchased a home in Northwest Indiana, and I
have been commuting to Barrington weekly since that time. I believe that the sacrifices I make allow me an opportunity to more fully live out the paschal mystery
through experiences in my own life; however, as I continue to seek to serve my vocation, I have come to the discernment that my resignation will provide a way by
which to better accommodate both the needs of my family as well as the needs of my
position here. So, while I find it difficult to let go of all that I would have liked to accomplish alongside each of you, I trust in the Holy Spirit’s work to provide for our
needs within the larger context of God’s plan and in ways we could not have planned
through our own accord.
I am extremely grateful for all that I have learned during these past three years, and I
would like to express my heartfelt appreciation to all of you for the Christian friendship and support you have offered me during this time.
As for my future plans, I intend to spend some time with my family, do some prayerful reflection and help execute a smooth and healthy transition as I prepare to leave
at the end of June. Your continued support is much more needed at this time than
ever before. I ask that you pray for me, my family and the work I am leaving behind,
most especially for all our faithful catechists without whom our children’s ministry
would not exist. Above all, pray for the Lord to open our eyes that we may see the
urgent need of depending upon him moment by moment as we seek true transformation in our lives and in our church.
With gratitude and a cheerful heart,
I am sincerely yours in Christ,
Sue Jett
Associate Director of Children’s Faith Formation

Saint Anne Technology Update
Saint Anne Parish School has some very exciting technology news! Over spring break, a brand new high density Wi-Fi network was deployed throughout the school. The new infrastructure is made up of over 50 of the
latest next generation Cisco Meraki 802.11AC access points, Gigabit Power over Ethernet Switches and all new
CAT6 Ethernet cabling. The solution utilizes cloud-based management for full network control and total visibility. It was designed to support the parish, school and guest needs throughout the entire campus. Pervasive
high density wireless coverage will deliver new opportunities for increased communication, student learning
and team collaboration leveraging mobile devices and the power of the Internet!
On behalf of Mrs. Dawn Kapka and the faculty and staff, we thank the Parish Council, Finance Committee, parishioner Mr. Ken Garcia and especially Father Bernie and Business Manager Mrs. Margaret Buckstaff for
making the infrastructure a reality!
What has been happening in technology class? This school year, a lot of time has
been spent on computer coding. Based on a survey released by code.org, 90% of
schools do not teach their students computer coding. Since our students are growing up in a digital world, it is important for them to understand how programs
work. In technology class, every grade level has had some incorporation of computer coding. For grades Kindergarten-5th, we have used varying levels of computer coding through drag-and-drop boxes in order to get students comfortable with
the process of thinking that coding requires. The most recent lesson completed was
Flappy Bird computer coding. Students were able to create their own Flappy Bird
game using drag-and-drop coding.
For the middle school, grades 6th-8th, we use the
website codehs.com to learn computer coding. The
program provides video tutorials, examples and puzzles to solve using code. Students learned the basics
of coding such as punctuation and capitalization, indentation, for-var loops, while loops, if statements
and if-else statements. For more information, see
Miss Wolf’s website at www.sastc.weebly.com.
A NOTE FROM THE SCHOOL ADVISORY BOARD:
We are looking for candidates to fill three school advisory board positions
that will be open at the end of the school year as board members complete
their three-year terms. This is a great opportunity to serve the school community. We encourage all school parents to consider joining us to bring
fresh perspectives and new ideas to improve our school. We promise that the opportunity to influence
school policy will enrich the overall experience for your family at Saint Anne School. Please consider helping us implement creative ideas and solutions. We provide several opportunities for you to contribute and
encourage participation in areas that you have an interest in or are areas of expertise, in particular, technology, marketing, fundraising, school administration, teaching, law and accounting. In addition, we support and interact with the Athletic Board and Home & School Association. Nomination packets are available in the school office or on the school website and are due back to the office by Friday, April 11th, at
3:00 p.m. For more information, contact any member of the School Board whose emails are available at
www.stanneschoolbarrington.org. Thank you for your consideration.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
FOR VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
JUNE 16TH-JUNE 20TH, 9:00 A.M.-12:00 P.M.
Whatever your gifts, interests
and time commitment …. we have a place for you!
In just a few short months, Saint Anne and St. Michael hope to join together again for
another special Holy Land Adventure at Vacation Bible School—journeying through the
desert wilderness with Moses and the Israelites—but we can’t do it without the help of
adult volunteers!
At VBS, kids will worship God with songs and prayer, create unique craft projects and
discover God’s powerful love in exciting and memorable ways. They will experience
what it was like for Moses and the Israelites to have to rely on God completely after
leaving the only home they knew in Egypt!
Between our two parishes, we have an enthusiastic core team in place, but in order to
have the best adventure possible, we need lots of volunteers who can share time, energy
and love with the kids who attend. Below are some great ways you can help make this
program a success.
Music Leader: Have a blast learning—and teaching—the music and motions of the Holy
Land Adventure theme songs
Fun and Games Leader: Lead fun high-energy, low-tech games that get kids and adults
laughing and that connect with each day’s Bible Point
Craft Leader: Guide participants in learning a variety of “skills” and making easy handson craft projects.
Snack Leader: Plan and work with a team of volunteers to prepare and serve simple and
nutritious daily snacks for VBS participants
Tribe Leaders: Lead small multi-aged groups through each learning station.
No prep work is involved…enjoy participating together with children in fun activities to
help them make the connection between what they learn in VBS and their everyday lives.
Other positions: Still don’t see something that interests you? We are also looking for:
• Registration Coordinator
• Decorating Team
• Photographer
• Publicity Coordinator
• Supply Coordinator
We believe that God will use this incredible program to reach many children with the
message of his love. Please prayerfully consider how you can help and respond to
Sue Jett at 847.620.3067 or sjett@stannebarrington.org by Tuesday, April 15th, so we can
provide our children this VBS experience and an opportunity to enjoy your gifts!

Sharing the Living Story
BY CLEM ASERON
5TH SUNDAY OF LENT, 2014 (34A)
Ezekiel 37:12-14; Psalm 130:1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8. RX= With the Lord there is mercy and fullness of redemption;
Romans 8:8-11; John 11:1-45
The raising of Lazarus is the climax of seven “signs”1 – John’s word for these wondrous Jesus deeds. John promotes
the significance rather than literalness of these deeds in order to reinvigorate faith in his community some two generations after Jesus’ death/resurrection; he interprets the signs by various reflections, narratives and discourses.2
The Good Shepherd story (Chap. 10) and the Lazarus story share John’s principal theme of death and resurrection.
The discourse in each teaches that Jesus has power over life and death; he says of his own life and death: I have power
to lay it down and power to take it up again(10:17-18). The sign in each makes concrete the story in real relationships
with real people.3
Another John literary device, irony, is again present: Jesus gives life to a dead man and simultaneously sets in motion
the plans for his own death (v.53).
Jesus is intimate with this family in which death occurs: see how he harbors deepest feelings for his sheep in a way
only a good shepherd can. It is said three times in today’s story (3, 5, 36) that Jesus loves Lazarus! Look at the lavish,
extravagant outpouring of love that John has Mary giving to Jesus in the opening of chp. 12. It is their home in Bethany where he customarily stayed when visiting Jerusalem; it was from this place that he would go to his passion and
death. (See Lk 10:38 for another description of the personalities of Martha and Mary and their relationship with Jesus.)
Responding to the news of Lazarus’ condition, Jesus assures the women that it is not the Father’s intent that Lazarus
should die but that from the happenstance of the death, God’s glory might be seen through his Son (v.4).
Tension builds as Jesus deliberately delays going to Lazarus; while he waits, Lazarus dies. By delaying, Jesus actually lays down a life. But he does not avoid death; he confronts it in its finality to conquer it. The glory of which Jesus
speaks is ultimately seen through death. In John, glory can be seen in the intimate connection of Jesus with and in his
father and in the other reality of his thorough and complete involvement in the lives of those whom he loves: these
two women and the man in whose death Jesus completely identifies.3
The disciples counsel against Jesus going to Bethany because of the hostile Jewish authorities. He responds enigmatically (vv.9-10). On one level, he is stating that he must carry out his ministry while he still can; his time is limited.
On a deeper level, he is speaking of himself as the light! Those who walk with the light of Jesus’ revelation will be led
through life without stumbling; those who choose not to walk with him will stumble.
At vv. 11-14, John uses another of his favorite literary devices: misunderstanding, to underscore a theological or spiritual point. Jesus tells the disciples that Lazarus has fallen asleep and that he must go to awake him. Sleep was a common euphemism for death but here the disciples misunderstand! Their confusion allows John to confirm Lazarus’
death and to show the purpose behind Jesus’ delay is to incite faith, i.e., solidarity with Jesus and his Father (v.15).
The resurrection of Lazarus points to a specific spiritual truth that would not be communicated if Jesus simply healed
Lazarus before he died. Jesus is not about the business of preventing death; he is about confronting and conquering
it.5
In v. 16, as elsewhere in John, the disciple Thomas always presents a call to faith: every believer must follow Jesus
through death to life. When Jesus arrives, Lazarus has been in the tomb four days. The rabbis taught that the soul
remained at the gravesite for three days yearning to return to the body. So any hope for his resuscitation has passed!
Mary and Martha had faith in Jesus’ ability to heal, but their hope had given way to regret. Both say that if only he
had come earlier, their brother would not have died. In particular, Martha’s faith (solidarity with Jesus) allowed her
to accept that all was not over. She knows that God will grant to Jesus his desires for Lazarus but that in any event,
Lazarus will be raised on the last day. Amazingly, Jesus’ answer is more immediate. Speaking to her (v. 25), he says
I AM (ego eimi) thereby identifying himself as one with the Father and making the claim to highest honor.(See Exodus 3:14, where God says that he is the I AM)
18 Saint Anne Church • April 6, 2014 • stannebarrington.org
Sharing the Living Story
This saying affirms that Christ’s life-giving work affects our life on two levels in two time frames! In the future, Jesus
will bring physical life again, but in the present, Jesus brings eternal life. The fact that he is the resurrection and life
and does not merely offer resurrection and life, shows that his saving work is totally integrated into his own very being and those who believe in him are uniting with him, are in solidarity with him, in a word, have faith.
Jesus himself is greatly moved (vv. 33, 35, 38) by all who are mourning at the tomb. In v. 33, became perturbed is a startling phrase in the Greek, literally, "He snorted in spirit," perhaps in anger at the presence of evil (death).6 He is presumably as disturbed as the others by the pain and loss brought on by the destructive power of death. Jesus grieves
with people in the face of death. [This is not one who is distant or unapproachable!]
To the horror of all, he orders the stone removed. Jewish burial practice required several steps. First, the corpse,
completely wrapped in linen, would be laid on a stone shelf in the tomb to decompose. A year later, the mourners
would reenter the tomb, gather the bones and deposit them in urns that were placed in cavities in the wall. Several
generations would thus share the tomb. But at this point, after four days, the body would be well into decay, and it
would be both repulsive as well as ritually impure to enter the tomb.
Nevertheless, Jesus reminds Martha of the promise of seeing God’s glory, and they move the stone. Jesus prays to
the Father for the sake of his audience. He is showing others that the Son works in union (communion) with the Father. [This intimacy is the glory of God which Jesus will explain again in chap. 13, 14 and 15 when he speaks of the
love of the father and himself and his disciples as being as so connected as to be like a vine and its branches]. The
physical miracle is told succinctly. Just as the sheep respond to the familiar voice of their shepherd, Lazarus responds to the call of Jesus – the Good Shepherd – and emerges from the tomb; he is released from the burial clothes
at Jesus’ command to all. The Christ releases humankind from sin, from all that binds and oppresses, even the ultimate sin, death.
Many of the Jews came to belief because of what they had witnessed. Others went running to the Pharisees (v.46)
and the plot to kill Jesus begins…
Chp. 11 (and 10) proclaims that Jesus is Lord over death. He voluntarily enters death’s grasp with the power to overcome its hold on those whom he loves. The dramatic fore-shadowing of Jesus’ own death and resurrection makes
this seventh sign a fitting climax to the “Book of Signs (chp 1-12) for it shows that the saving, revealing work of
Christ comes through his personal victory over death.
v.1. Lazarus, Greek = God helps;7 Bethany, Hebrew, bet-anniyah = house of response/witness/testimony8
v.2 This is not described by John until 12:1-8
The scriptures for the Third Scrutiny are perhaps the most difficult of the three Sundays when the Church points us
toward scrutinizing the way we live our lives in light of the understanding we may have at this moment about our
solidarity with God. It is perhaps easier to respond like Martha and say that resurrection is future oriented (v.24).
The Psalm refrain has it: With the Lord, there is mercy and fullness of redemption.
So What?
We are about to enter Holy Week and its celebrations of the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus.
Dare we tell others – say, those in the RCIA community – about the times when we were able to say:
“You know something…solidarity with the Jesus who gave signs like these …
lets me come through the pain and chaos that have been part of my life.”

We believe that the celebration of the sacraments
ranks among the most important gifts that we have.
We look forward to sharing these celebrations with
those who, in some way, are part of our community.
Therefore, please note the following:
Visitation of the Sick: If you or a family member are in
a local hospital or are homebound and would like a
visit from a minister of care or a priest, call Mary
Hoffing at 847.382.2148.
Baptism: Our Baptism ministry is pleased to help your
family prepare for the special event of your child’s
entrance into our faith community.
•
Two Baptism sessions are required for parents
baptizing their 1st child at Saint Anne
•
Parents who have had a Baptism at another Catholic
Church and are now wanting to baptize a child at
Saint Anne will be asked to speak to a staff member
before scheduling Baptism
•
Parents who have already attended Baptism
preparation at Saint Anne will be asked to speak to
a staff member before scheduling Baptism
