PASTOR'S CORNER
Welcome to St. Ann’s Parish Website!
I invite you to explore our website as a means of getting to know St. Ann’s and all that we do to serve Christ and one another. While we are well known in Charlotte for having a beautiful church and beautiful liturgy, what’s most beautiful about our parish is our parishioners! We are a family-oriented, thriving parish just south of Uptown Charlotte, filled with people committed to worshiping God through the fullness of our Catholic tradition and serving the poor and needy with charity and compassion. Come join us for Mass and help us as we seek to glorify God, bear witness to His Truth, and show forth His Love.

HOMILIES
WEEKLY LETTER
June 8, 2025
Dear Parishioners,
Happy and blessed Trinity Sunday! Today the Church celebrates the central belief of our Faith: that our one God exists as a Trinity of co-equal and co-eternal Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It’s a day for us to reflect on what the Father as our Creator, the Son as our Savior, and the Holy Spirit as our Sanctifier have done to bring about man’s salvation. At the same time, today’s Feast should lead to consider how we must respond to the mighty love God has shown us, praising Him and giving Him glory.
This weekend our diocese ordained 6 men to the priesthood! This is a tremendous blessing to our diocese and reason for all of us to celebrate. Please pray that these new priests will glorify God well by their service to our diocese.
Please remember that this coming week we will celebrate our annual 40 Hours of Adoration in honor of Corpus Christi. We will begin with a Corpus Christi Latin Mass on Thursday, 19 June 2025 at 7pm. That will be followed by 40 Hours of Eucharistic Adoration, which will conclude on Saturday,
21 June at 4pm. As always, we will have our annual Corpus Christi procession on Sunday, 22 June after the 10:30am Mass. All our 1st communicants are invited to come in their dresses and suits to be a part of procession next Sunday morning.
To sign up for an hour of Adoration, go to our parish website: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C054DA4A82DA3FFC34-57188171-forty#/.
This same link is in the Friday 5 email blast. Please come and spend an hour with our Lord!
Yours in Holy Trinity,
Fr. Reid
