Spotlight on Stewardship

Stewardship Reflection

December 31, 2017 - The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and

Joseph

“…as the Lord has forgiven you, so you must forgive.” -

COLOSSIANS 3:13

Forgiveness – one of the hardest things for people to do.

It’s amazing how long we can hold a grudge or be angry

with someone. As we celebrate the feast of the Holy

Family, take this opportunity to give the gift of forgiveness

to someone - maybe someone in your family, maybe a

friend, maybe a co- worker or neighbor or, maybe yourself.

Pick up the phone or text someone right now.

Living the Eucharist

Living the Eucharist is a dynamic, parish-based program

designed to help revitalize parish life and mission through a

more profound experience of Sunday Mass. It helps the

entire parish—adults, teens, and families—grow in their

Catholic faith and live more fully as missionary disciples of

Jesus. The program runs for three years during Lent.

Parishioners can take part in sharing groups, family

activities, devotional and catechetical Lenten readings, and

a prayer campaign. Team leaders will help the parish by

facilitating small group meetings once a week during Lent.

There will be a training session for team leaders. If you are

interested in being a team leader, please call Kimberly Kaup

in the parish office at 706-561-8678 or register at

stannecsg.com/living-the-Eucharist by Jan. 2, 2018.

All registered members of St. Anne will automatically receive

an end-of-the-year statement before Jan. 31. Please note the

following posting procedures for 2017-18 contributions:

Baby Shower for Jesus

St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School 7th

graders recently hosted a “Baby

Shower for Jesus” in their Religion

classes. The students raised money

to purchase baby items. The

bottles, blankets, diapers and more

were taken by students to St. Anne

Community Outreach and gifted to

mothers in need in our community.

Kinderkeeper Program

St. Anne-Pacelli 5th graders serve as

"Kinderkeepers." They are paired with

Kindergarten students and develop special

bonds during the school year. On December

20th, the last day of school before Christmas

Break, our 5th graders visited Kindergarten

classrooms to read Christmas stories

together. This program is a great way for 5th

graders to demonstrate stewardship while

developing leadership skills.

Religious Education Reminders

Sunday School classes will resume on Sun., Jan. 7.

Youth Groups

Our parish’s Middle and High School Youth Groups will

meet on Sun., Jan. 14. For more info, please visit

Room on Sat., Jan. 20 beginning at 10 a.m. We will end
