SAINT ANNE PARISH © 2021 (Excerpt –Catholic Doors Ministry)
As branches, there are many ways that we can abide in Jesus and receive life from him so we can bear fruit.
One way is by hearing the Word of God. Through the Spirit, the Word feeds our souls.
So powerful is the Word of God that it is “living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing until it divides soul fron spirit…” (Heb. 43:12)
The Word of God has the power to transform those who sincerely seek the truth.
(Extracto –Ministerio de Puertas Católicas ) Como ramas, hay muchas maneras en que podemos permanecer en Jesús y recibir la vida de él para que podamos dar fruto. Una manera es escuchando la Palabra de Dios. A través del Espíritu, la Palabra alimenta nuestras almas.
Tan poderosa es la Palabra de Dios que es "viva y activa, más nítida que cualquier espada de dos filos, penetrante hasta que divide el espíritu del alma..."
(Heb. 43:12).
La Palabra de Dios tiene el poder de transformar a aquellos que sinceramente buscan la verdad.
HOW TO CELEBRATE THE YEAR OF THE EUCHARIST Gather – Word – Presence - Sending
Read the Archbishop’s Pastoral Letter.
Pray for a deeper understanding and experience of the Eucharist.
Attend an Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.

To the Parishioners of
Queen of Angels Parish, Port Angeles St. Joseph Parish, Sequim
St. Anne Parish, Forks
St. Thomas the Apostle Mission, Clallam Bay
Dear Friends,
I am happy today to greet all of you in the name of the Risen Lord Jesus!
As Archbishop, I have the important responsibility of providing you with ongoing pastoral care and sacramental ministry in your parish community.
At this time, I write to inform you that your parishes and mission will be coming together under one pastoral leader beginning July 1. As a result of this new configuration, sacramental and pastoral ministry needs for St.
Thomas the Apostle Mission in Clallam Bay are currently being studied by the Strategic Planning Committee in communication with the Olympic Deanery. Reduction in ministry in Clallam Bay will most likely take place as part of this configuration. I am pleased to announce that, after consultation with the Priest Personnel Board, I have appointed Father Randy Guarino as your new Priest Administrator and Father Naresh Gali as your new Parochial Vicar. Presently, Father Guarino is the Priest Administrator at St. Mary Star of the Sea Parish in Port Townsend. Father Gali, a priest of the Diocese of Nellore, India, is still in the process of receiving an R1 Visa to arrive in time for a July 1 start date.
Father Guraino and Father Gali are wonderful priests who will serve you and your parish with good faith and dedication. Be assured that they will receive all of the support and assistance from the Archdiocese necessary to ensure quality pastoral care for your parish community. At the same time, I want to personally thank Cathy Wiswell and Father Leonardo Pestaño for their wonderful service as your pastoral coordinator and parish priest.
Consistent with her servant heart, Cathy is ready to move back into the role of regional administrator, which now extends to the west end. Father Leonardo will move forward in responding to God’s call in his new assignment as Priest Administrator of Our Lady of Lourdes Parish in Vancouver. Finally, I want to personally thank Father Francis Arulappan, HGN, for his tremendous service these past four years to Grays Harbor, Forks and Clallam Bay.
Times of transition are challenging, as we prepare to say goodbye to a familiar presence and welcome a new pastoral leader. However, if embraced in an open and positive way, this can be a time of blessing for the entire parish. I am confident that will be the case as you welcome Father Randy Guarino and Father Naresh Gali to your parishes.
In the Heart of Christ,
Most Rev. Paul D. Etienne, DD, STL , Archbishop of Seattle

REGISTRATION FOR IN PERSON MASS IS DISCONTINUED
Registrations, i.e., reservations, for Mass are being discontinued as of April 5
thas our capacity increases to 50 and admittance will be based on a first come, first serve basis.
We will be getting creative to make this happen and still keep everyone safe. Greeters, ushers seating parishioners and all other procedures and protocols will stay in place.
Please come to Mass early to be seated. If we find the make-up of the attendees does not allow for social distancing you may be turned away in order to keep everyone safe. Doors will be closed when we reach capacity or when Mass begins, whichever comes first.
SE SUSPENDE EL REGISTRO DE MISA
Las inscripciones, es decir, las reservas, para Misa se suspenden a partir del 5 de Abril, ya que nuestra capacidad aumenta a 50, y la admisión se basará en las personas que llegan primero. Nos haremos creativos para que esto suceda y aun así mantendremos a todos a salvo.
Los saludadores, los feligreses de asientos de los ujieres y todos los demás procedimientos y protocolos permanecerán en su lugar.
Por favor, ven a Misa temprano para sentarse. Si encontramos que no hay más espacio, y no permite el distanciamiento social, es posible que te den la vuelta para mantener a todos a salvo.
Las puertas estarán cerradas cuando alcancemos la capacidad o cuando comience la misa, lo que ocurra primero.

REMINDERS FOR MASS
It has been a long time since the pandemic has swept around the world and through our corner of the country. It seems like a lifetime ago since we have been able to attend Mass without special considerations in place. Pandemic fatigue is a real thing. People need a break from routine to recharge body and soul. Unfortunately, Covid 19 does not allow for a break. We all need to stay focused and attentive to detail to keep ourselves and those closest to us safe.
The same guidelines are still in place: wear a well-fitting mask, wash your hands, or use hand sanitizer, maintain social distance, and stay at home if you are sick or exposed to someone who is sick. What does this mean for us to attend Mass?
Wait to be admitted into the church. Do not crowd into the entry. Pay attention to the usher. They are there to keep us at proper intervals before, during and after Mass. The Archdiocese says that a collection can be taken as long as the basket has a handle on it that is held by the usher.
Communion must be received from the Priest in your hand without contact. If there happens to be accidental direct touch/contact, please tell the usher. You need to sanitize immediately, and the Priest needs to sanitize before continuing with Communion. Finally, when leaving after Mass, you must go straight to your vehicles.
Please resist meeting in front of the church. Social distancing must be maintained all the way through the process. These rules can make it difficult to gain the same sense of family we are used to in our Parish. Join me in praying that God will soon give us relief from this terrible virus and grant assistance to all those who have been affected.
Yours in Christ, Dwight Klebe RECORDATORIOS PARA LAS MISAS
Ha pasado mucho tiempo desde que la pandemia ha arrasado el mundo y a través de nuestro rincón del país. Parece que hace toda una vida desde que hemos podido asistir a la misa sin consideraciones especiales. La fatiga pandémica es algo real. La gente necesita un descanso de la rutina para recargar cuerpo y alma.
Desafortunadamente, Covid 19 no permite un descanso. Todos necesitamos mantenernos concentrados y atentos a los detalles para mantenernos a nosotros mismos y a los más cercanos a nosotros a salvo. Las mismas reglas siguen en su lugar:
use una máscara bien ajustada, lávese las manos o use desinfectante de manos, mantenga la distancia social y quédese en casa si está enfermo o expuesto a alguien que está enfermo.
¿Qué significa esto para nosotros asistir a la misa? Espera a ser admitido en la iglesia. No se amontone en la entrada.
Preste atención al acomodador. Están ahí para mantenernos a intervalos apropiados antes, durante y después de la Misa.
La Arquidiócesis dice que una colección se puede tomar siempre y cuando la cesta tenga un mango en ella que está en manos del acomodador. La comunión debe ser recibida del Sacerdote en su mano sin contacto.
Si hay contacto directo accidental, por favor dígale al acomodador. Necesitas desinfectar inmediatamente, y el Sacerdote necesita desinfectar antes de continuar con la Comunión. Finalmente, al salir después de la misa, debe ir directamente a sus vehículos.
Por favor, resistan reunirse frente a la iglesia. El distanciamiento social debe mantenerse durante todo el proceso. Estas reglas pueden dificultar el mismo sentido de familia a la que estamos acostumbrados en nuestra Parroquia. Acompáñenme en la oración para que Dios pronto nos dé alivio de este terrible virus y conceda ayuda a todos aquellos que han sido afectados.
Tuyo en Cristo, Dwight Klebe

WHAT IS A STEWARDSHIP MINISTRY?
Stewardship in its simplest terms, is the act of putting God’s priorities before our own. Stewards respond to God’s call for ministry, a service to God and to other people.
Stewardship is a way of life. It is a giving of your “first fruits, which is an aspect of sacrificial giving; time, talent, and treasure to the Lord’s work, in gratitude for His sacrifice, mercy, forgiveness, and these opportunities for service to God and to others.
PRAYER
Prayer is the foundation with which to embrace stewardship. Through prayer we confront our spirituality and where we can meet and have a conversation with God. Prayerfully consider what
you can do for our Parish Community.
Contact the Parish Council at 360-374-9184.
