Who We Are |
|
St. Ann's is the only Episcopal Church in a wide geographical area, drawing members from at least 14 communities. In our 2005 Parochial Report, we had 253 communicants. Our Church family enjoys a rich mixture of people, who accept, support, and learn from each other. Our diversity includes all ages, many types of households and families, varying economic and educational backgrounds, and different faith traditions. Many of us wear several hats at St. Ann's. We are Sunday School teachers, lectors, chalice bearers, newsletter editor, adult discussion group leaders, vestry members, soup kitchen volunteers, cleaners and mowers, youth group leaders, office volunteers -- the list goes on and on. At St. Ann's, we minister to one another in ways both formal and informal. The Pastoral Care Committee provides support for the priest's ministry to members in need, through telephone calls, visits, and cards. The Prayer Chain is a group which prays daily for the needs of others. Often in our history, we have had interim periods where the efforts and faithful contributions of lay people were crucial. In these times, many of us have discovered our giftedness and the importance of being there for one another. We want to continue to be a very active part of God's work. The Rev. Timothy Higgins, our full-time rector, supports the ongoing growth in faith and service of our many lay ministers. |
