Each year students from our Faith Formation classes work together to create valentines for veterans in local care facilities in our area. This year this project becomes more challenging with our classes online and not in person. Therefore, we are asking our students and parishioners to join in creating homemade valentines for veterans. This can be an individual project or one for the whole household to participate in.

Please place your valentines in a sealed baggie and sign them with your first name only. Valentines will be collected following the 5:00pm Mass on January 31st – please place your valentines in the “Valentines for Veterans” box at the main entrance of the church.

The poinsettias that have decorated the Church during the Christmas Season will be available for adoption. They will be placed in the Church basement on Monday, January 18th. Please give them a good home!!

For the immediate future, we will have signups for the weekend Masses to ensure we do not go over the allocated number of parishioners allowed in Church. Please sign up for Mass on our website at www.stannsraynham.org, on our Facebook page, our Flocknote message, or call our office (508)-823-9833. Registration for Mass will remain open online until 1 hour prior to all scheduled Mass times.

This has been a difficult year for the youth in our parish and we miss our students and volunteers greatly. However, with COVID numbers predicted to increase, we will be continuing to send home prerecorded lessons and assignments through our online learning portals for the next couple of months.

Students receiving First Communion and Confirmation this spring will be notified by email of a required live-virtual class during the new year. First Communion will have two sessions to select from on February 7th and Confirmation will have two sessions to select from on January 24th – registration will be required as access to each session will be limited.

For the month of February we again only need Lectors for the weekend Masses. Lectors, please submit the dates you are unavailable by Sunday, January 17th, so the February schedule can be made. Thank you all for your help!

Cancellation of Faith Formation classes due to snow will be posted on WHDH Channel 7, and on this website. If school is cancelled or delayed, Daily Mass will also be cancelled.

A reminder, the church is open daily from 8:00am to 5:00pm for you to stop by and pray. Please exercise social distancing while in the church. Daily Mass is live-streamed on our website & Facebook at 8:00am each day.

Many have been so thoughtful and concerned during these days about how we can continue to support our Parish. Many thanks to all who have mailed in or dropped off their contributions. We also have a new method – online giving. To sign up for that simply go to stannsraynham.weshareonline.org or click the “We Share” icon above. There you will be able to set up weekly, monthly, or a one-time contribution. It is very simple to use and very secure.

The Fall River Diocese sponsors a televised Mass each Sunday at 11:00am on WLNE-TV, ABC Channel 6, New Bedford-Providence. The Mass is re-aired at 12:30pm on Comcast cable channel 95 in Fall River. On the air since September 1963, the Television Mass serves members of the faithful who are unable to attend Mass at a parish church because of illness or infirmity.
