are available. Serving begins at 4:00 pm. Come and have dinner with your parish family.
All proceeds help the parish school.
Daughters of Isabella
The Daughters of Isabella are hosting a "Rummage Sale" on April
5th. When doing your spring housecleaning and are parting with your unwanted items,
please do not discard them. Put them in a box and save them for the Rummage Sale as your
discards might very well bring in profits for this event.

Our Lady Sodality
The Lady Sodality will host a chili supper on March 8th. In
addition to their delicious chili, there will be baked goods and pre-picnic items for
sale. Circle your calendar for this event!
Lenten Fasting
There are people who practice regular fasting for health reasons.
For a number of days they drink water, tea, and juices. They say that after a fast they
feel lighter, clearer, and more focused. The body is cleansed of impurities. Some call it
"detoxing." The caffeine, refined sugars, and chemicals in processed foods work
themselves out. The person gets a fresh start, and after the fast tries to incorporate
changes. Less caffeine, less sugar, less alcohol, fewer processed foods.
In today’s readings we hear about fasting. Isaiah warns
against using fasting to draw attention to oneself. Jesus, however, suggests there is a
mourning aspect to fasting. When we fast during Lent, it is not for the sake of our
physical but rather for our spiritual health. We draw our attention to the fallen world
and our place in it. We are attentive to the ways we are separated from God. In fact, many
people have transferred this concept of fasting away from food and other things we put
into ourselves. They take a television fast, or a news fast, or a gossiping fast. The
things that are toxic to our relationship with God are the things we should avoid and work
out of our system.
This is especially true of Lent. The Ash Wednesday readings
reminded us that this is "an appropriate time." We miss and long for the return
of the bridegroom. We choose what is good and life-giving. We eat the Eucharistic bread,
we drink from the cup that offers everlasting life.
Rosary Schedule
During Lent, the Rosary will be recited at
St. Joseph and St. Anne every Thursday at 8:30 pm. Please try and take advantage of this
time frame to offer your devotion to Mary, the Mother of God.
A plenary indulgence is granted, if the Rosary is recited in a
church or public oratory or in a family group, a religious Community or pious Association;
a partial indulgence is granted in other circumstances.
School News
Students will not be in attendance at the school on Monday,
February 18 due to the celebration of President’s Day.
Home and School Association
The Home and School Association will hold their monthly meeting on
Tuesday, February 19 at 6:30 pm in Kreft Auditorium. Please make arrangements to attend
this important meeting.
