Total Offertory Collection Offertory Collection for February 4, 2018 This Year s Budget Goal Current Week Year to Date $14,447 $464,653 $14,790 $454,416 Variance from Budget ($343) $10,237 Getting ready for Lent The Church knows from centuries of experience that we don t start getting into Lent until we receive ashes on our forehead on Ash Wednesday. The next three days the Thursday, Friday, and Saturday after Ash Wednesday are a time for us to start warming up for Lent. These days are something like pre-season games in most sports. We start out Lenten practices, but we re getting the feel of it, and making our plans. Then, with the first full week of Lent, we re into it with full force. The 40 days of Lent are measured from the First Sunday of Lent until Holy Thursday...then we begin the Triduum - the three holiest days of the year: Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday.

Bereavement Ministry News During the 6 weeks of Lent, we are encouraged to know our Lord more deeply and follow Him closely. Annunciation Parish provides many ways we can take this Lenten Journey of worship, prayer and sharing. One of these important ways is through Prayer Around the Cross. The Bereavement Ministry will be leading Prayer Around the Cross on Monday, March 5 at 7:00 pm. If you feel the need to be with others who have experienced the same loss as you have endured, please consider coming. There will be prayer, music and a special time for reflection. If you have any questions, please contact Yvonne at the Parish House (209)
