10 Year Anniversary Celebration at St. Ann's

Join Us September 18th

You are invited to celebrate with us this anniversary of joy and thanksgiving for our Mother Thrice Admirable of Schoenstatt.  She has blessed our St. Ann Parishioners with her 3 Pilgrimage Graces for the last 10 years from her Wayside Shrine. We invite you to join us at 12 Noon Holy Mass.  Celebration will immediately follow.

We will have prayer, song, and renewal of the Covenant of Love and a special blessing of the Shrine.  Sweet refreshments will be served by the Schoenstatt Mothers.  Festivities will be held at the Wayside Shrine by the picnic tables.  May our Blessed Mother’s presence in the little Shrine be a continuous blessing for all.

May Blossoms for Mary at St Ann's Wayside Shrine

May Blossoms for Mary at St Ann's Wayside Shrine

The Schoenstatt Mothers at St Ann's wanted to offer May Blossoms to our Blessed Mother during her special month. Mary will have many visitors throughout the month and the Mothers wanted to surround the Wayside Shrine with a garden of flowers as expressions of love from her children. Working with Nick Bassi and the Knights of Columbus, the soil around the Wayside Shrine was tilled and a variety of hearty Texas flowers were planted for Mary. Roses, jasmine, begonias, marigolds and vincas each one symbolizing a little gift to our Mother, Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May!

Garden at Wayside Shrine at St Gabriel the Archangel

Article written by Laura Schuckenbroc, Mothers Branch leader at St. Gabriel the Archangel

b2ap3_thumbnail_Image-1-2.jpgI was sitting with Blessed Mother by Her little Wayside shrine of the Annunciation at St Gabriel, one morning after daily mass and rosary in March.  I looked at Her and said: "Blessed Mother, we love you so much and this little garden does not reflect all the love we have for you here at St Gabriel."  What would you like dear Mother, inspire me, and I will do it. Dear Father and Founder, you were always good at knowing God's wishes and doing God's will, please pray that we can give our Mother here in this little shrine a beautiful garden.  Tell me how to go about.

“Take this picture of the Blessed Mother and give it a place of honor in your home. Then your home will become a little shrine in which the picture of grace will mediate many graces, create a holy family atmosphere, and form holy family members.”

-Father Joseph Kentenich,
Founder of Schoenstatt
