St. Anne's was organized in 1922. St. Anne's was initially organized to provide the needs and upkeep of the altars, plus providing items needed for Mass including altar wine and communion hosts which were made and baked by members (they still are today!), candles, linens and flowers.
Since then, our duties have increased to include washing & ironing altar purificators, linens, and priest and altar server albs; attending the plants and flowers we purchase and cleaning the altars; cleaning altar vessels and holy water fonts and other periodic dusting/cleaning of altars, statues, Stations of the Cross, window sills, door frames, etc. We also assist at funeral receptions, if requested by the deceased family. We purchase the merchandise for the religious articles booth, display, and then sell after weekend masses.
We sponsor and lead the Patriotic Rosary in church at noon on the first Monday of the months September thru May; afterwards, meetings are held at the PMC.
