If you are attending Annunciation and are not registered
with the Parish as a member, we have no idea if you are
a participating Catholic or not, so please register and if
you can not afford to give monetarily please put a prayer
card in the offertory so that we know you are attending.
Also for all of you who pay by cash we really appreciate
it but if you would put it in an envelope we could track
that you are attending as well. It is important when it
comes to all the Sacraments. We can not say you are
active if we do not know. Thank you…
With all the food allergies that are in
our environment today there are
sometimes people who are allergic to
gluten. We now provide a gluten free
host to those individuals. You must
speak to Father Bill to let him know
that you need gluten free host and it will be made
available to you.
If you need to schedule a baptism,
please enroll in the next class that is
being held May18th at 7:00 pm in the
parish office. Please call the Parish office to register for the class.

April 30 (week 6)
Thomas is now 10,000 times larger than the original fertilized egg and he is
developing rapidly. His heart is pumping increasing quantities of blood through his body. The
placenta forms a unique barrier between mother and her baby. The baby likely has a different
blood type, different DNA and is not part of the mother’s body.
“Even the hairs of your head have all been counted. Do not be afraid. You are worth more
than many sparrows.” (Luke 12:7)

C.O.R.E. Workshop
Pope Francis said “…human trafficking is a scourge
upon the body of Christ. A crime against
humanity.” We encourage you to attend this workshop
and share information with others! We can defend and
uphold human dignity in a culture that regards the
human person as a commodity and wholly
disposable. It isn’t as difficult as you think! Contact
[email protected] for additional information or

Who are the Men of St. Joseph?
We, the Men of St. Joseph, are a group of Catholic men dedicated to becoming the
spiritual leaders of our families by strengthening our faith and being “real world” examples
of Christ. Our group bolsters discussion of faith and prayer life specifically for men, giving
men new ways to reflect upon their lives and be better servants to God and their family. The
result is nothing less than a revived culture, the same culture that Pope John Paul II called
the Culture of Life.
Our mission is “To put the family in the hands of the Father.” We believe it is time for men to step up
and take a leadership role in guiding their families, friends, parishes and their
communities towards Christ and the fullness of His Catholic Church.
We welcome you to join us on this journey on Sunday nights. We meet at the
Knights of Columbus House at 6:00pm and start with dinner. Please contact
