If you are attending Annunciation and are not registered with the Parish as a member, we have no idea if you are a participating Catholic or not, so please register and if you can not afford to give monetarily please put a blank

visitors envelope in the offertory so that we know you are attending. Also for all of you who pay by cash we really appreciate it but if you would put it in an envelope we could track that you are attending as well. It is important when it comes to all the Sacraments. We can not say you are active if we do not know. Thank you…

National Vocation Awareness Week

It is celebrated November 3-9, 2019, is an annual week-long celebration of the Catholic

Church in the United States dedicated to promote vocations to the priesthood, diaconate

and consecrated life through prayer and education, and to renew our prayers and

support for those who are considering one of these particular vocations. NVAW began in 1976 when the U.S. bishops designated the

28th Sunday of the year for NVAW. In 1997, this celebration was moved to coincide with the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, which falls on January 13 in 2013. Beginning in

2014, NVAW was moved to the first full week of November.

Prayer for Vocations

Almighty and eternal God, in your unfailing love you provide ministers for your Church. We pray for

those whom you call to serve the Church of Annunciation as priests. Inspire in them a generous response. Grant them courage and vision to serve

your people. May their lives and service call your people to respond to the presence of your Spirit

among us that, faithful to the Gospel and hope of Jesus the Christ, we may: announce glad tidings to the poor proclaim liberty to captives, set prisoners

free, and renew the face of the earth. Amen
