The mission of St. Anne’s Worship Committee is to enhance and improve the liturgical celebrations of the Parish by following the established guidelines of the Diocese. While the ultimate responsibility for worship resides with the pastor, this committee exists to help him help the community.
Responsibilities include planning the physical environment to highlight the seasons and special occasions of the church, surveying the liturgical needs of the Parish, training the liturgical ministers, and working with the Director of Music to provide appropriate music. Members attend meetings at 6:30 p.m. on the second Tuesday of the month in the Sacristy, plus spend about four more hours carrying out the responsibilities listed above.
