Support the Spirit of St. Francis Fund
Christopher James, one of our parishioners and father of two students at St. Ann School, is turning 50 and has decided to "celebrate" by challenging himself to run 50 laps (or 12.5 miles) at a local track. He's calling it 50 Laps Around The Sun.
He writes "I thought it would be great to do this as a charity fundraiser and I've chosen The Spirit of St. Francis Fund. This fund was initiated in honor of Sheila O'Callaghan, known to many as "Miss O," in celebration of her 50 years of service to The St. Ann School in Wilmington. The Spirit of St. Francis Fund helps embrace diversity and provide the opportunity for under-served families in our community to access a Catholic education.

Do you know a relative, friend, or co-worker who is not Catholic and has asked you about your Catholic faith? Do you feel that someone you know is seeking to find the Lord in their life? Is there an adult in your family who is baptized Catholic but hasn't yet made his or her other sacraments of initiation? Encourage them to "Seek the Lord while He may be found; call to Him, while He is still near." The call to conversion and holiness begins with an inquiry and information session -- a no obligation, free introductory offer about the Catholic Faith. The clergy of St. Ann Parish are happy to help individuals inquire about the Catholic Faith, by leading the sessions through the process called: "The ORDER of Christian Initiation of Adults (formerly RCIA). It meets over a period of six months, once a week (off for Thanksgiving and Christmas) starts on October 2, 2024 and concludes the week after Easter 2025 at 6:30 PM in the school Conference Room A. In these sessions, we will explain the faith, and help inquirers every step of the way, guiding them to discern the possibility of entering the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil on April 19, 2025.
