COMMUNITY MINISTRIES
FOOD COLLECTION
On the first and third Sundays of each month non-perishable food and paper products are collected at Mass. A volunteer takes them to Catholic Charities Diocese of Charlotte for distribution to individuals and families in the area.
HOMELESS MINISTRY
St. Ann’s Parish Homeless Ministry outreach to Center of Hope – Women & Children’s Shelter. The first in a year-round series of monthly missions to bring Sunday dinner, Monday lunches and after-school snack bags to homeless kids, moms and single women. Located at 534 Spratt Street, near the intersection of Graham Avenue and Statesville Road, the Center of Hope shelters over 250 residents. Currently 40% of these souls are children aged 12 or younger. Please pray for them as they embark on a new aspect of their own prayer lives in leadership and service. Donations to the “Home Missions” collections taken up quarterly here at St. Ann’s help to fund this outreach. As the homeless ministry’s relationship with the Center of Hope grows, we can expect to discover and meet other specific needs that can be met through our stewardship.
RESPECT LIFE COMMITTEE
St Ann Respect Life is active throughout the year in conjunction with the USCCB's Secretariat for Respect Life through the Diocese of Charlotte and with CPLAN, the Carolina Pro-Life Action Network.
