Dear St. Anne Catholic School Families:

We hope everyone had a wonderful Spring Break! We had a fun-filled week with a teddy bear picnic for our Pre-K students, our Steps for Students incentive winners enjoyed spirit dress for the week, a special picnic lunch, PE teacher for the day and closed the week with a snowball fight. It’s hard to believe we are now in the 4^th quarter. Summer will be here before you know it. We have so many activities lined up for the next two months, the Crusader Connection will be your best source of information.

Congratulations to all of our 8^th graders who received their acceptance letters from Catholic and private high schools last week. We are beyond proud of all their accomplishments, and we are confident they will have continued success in high school. We are accepting applications for all grade levels for the 2022-2023 school year, so be sure to spread the word. Just a reminder, we have a referral program, anyone who refers a new family that enrolls their students at St. Anne will receive a $250 tuition credit for 2022-2023.

The countdown to Our Theatre Under the Stars Gala is on! With less than a month to go the Gala Committee is hard at work buttoning everything up to ensure we have an amazing event. We are excited to announce that The Liv Harrison will be providing entertainment at our Gala! Liv has an incredible gift for speaking and has three media shows. You’re not going to want to miss it - tickets can be purchased online here or send a check with the RSVP card to the front office.

As we continue our Lenten Journey, we are invited to meditate on the Joy of Christianity and continue the Lenten disciplines of fasting, prayer, and charity.

Have a wonderful and blessed weekend.

Only by His Grace,

Kendall Shamas

STATIONS OF THE CROSS :

St. Anne Catholic Church 6:30pm English | 7:30pm Spanish

Way of the Cross - Via Crucis 2022

St. Anne Catholic Community invites you to participate in the prayer of the Stations of the Cross every Friday during Lent. The Stations of the Cross are a 14-step Catholic devotion that commemorates Jesus Christ's last day on Earth as a man, beginning with His condemnation. The stations are commonly used as a mini pilgrimage as we move from station to station. At each station, we recall and meditate on a specific event from Christ's last day. Specific prayers are recited, then we move to the next station until all 14 are complete.

From the development office:

We are excited to announce we will be launching a new website in the coming weeks. As we make the transition, our current website will remain static. Please disregard any outdated information that appears in the banner of our homepage. We appreciate your patience.

After school programs:

The next session of chess begins on March 31^st. See chess flyer for registration details.

The next session of golf begins April 5^th. See golf flyer for registration details.

Traveling Crucifix:

Your prayers are essential to support those who nurture our children in all of the programs and activities provided by our school. The traveling crucifix is a school –wide effort to pray for vocations and our students, families, teachers, staff members, and volunteers, as they engage their daily work in education.

The crucifix will be presented to your family at the conclusion of Mass. We ask that you return it to the school Mass the following Wednesday.

For questions, please email or call the school office at 281-351-0093.

Thank you for praying with us - All spots are filled
