Each year the Austin Diocesan Council of Catholic Women sponsors the Austin Diocese Rural Life Mass. This Mass is celebrated by Bishop Vasquez to honor and support rural life in our diocese. Different parishes sponsor this Mass every year. In 2015, on August 20th, St. Ann's has accepted the honor and responsibility to host this Mass ! Please mark your calendars! We will also host the dinner that evening following the Mass. The SACCW will spearhead this event along with the Knights of Columbus, who have generously and kindly agreed to help us. And of course we have Father Uche's full support! All parishioners are invited and when we start seriously planning early next year, we will ask for your help.
