St. Anne Shrine of Fall River

Please remember them on this day dedicated to the memory of those who have gone before us. It is an act of mercy to pray for souls in Purgatory…they’re praying for us!

The Church offers us a way, every November, to offer a Plenary Indulgence for a soul in Purgatory. This story, from ChurchPop, tells us how to: https://www.churchpop.com/how-you-can-offer-a-plenary-indulgence-for-the-souls-in-purgatory-nov-1-8/

They came from far and wide…the benefactors, contributors, and interested parties focused on celebrating the success over the past year at the 3rd Annual Capital Campaign Banquet held at McGovern’s Restaurant in Fall River on Tuesday, October 22, 2024.

Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, guest speaker from the Missionaries of the Immaculate Conception in Stockbridge MA, was welcomed to the celebration by Jeff Montigny, President of the St. Anne Shrine Preservation Society on behalf of the members and attendees:

Attendees were treated to a full dinner with talks and tokens of appreciation from the Society for their support. By all measures, it was a success and enjoyed by all.
