As a reminder the December Healing Mass will be celebrated THIS COMING THURSDAY DECEMBER 3 immediately preceding the Immaculate Conception Novena Service.

Tonight begins the Immaculate Conception Novena at the shrine. Services will be held daily at 6:00pm. Join us as we honor our Blessed Mother in this time of preparation.

Thank you to those who attended the vespers service this evening! It was wonderful to see so many folks. We hope to see you again next week at 4:00pm.

The celebration of vespers or solemn evening prayer is taken from the Liturgy of the Hours. Outside of the holy sacrifice of the Mass, the Divine Office is the official prayer of the church. Join us today at 4:00pm as we celebrate Solemn Advent Vespers in the shrine.

Attention all Catholics! Please read how you can have Facebook support our Catholic Apostolate.

As you may know, Tuesday, December 1, 2020 is #GivingTuesday, a global day of giving celebrated the Tuesday after Thanksgiving in the United States.

What makes this so special is that Facebook is matching donations that Tuesday. This means for every dollar we raise, Facebook will give us a dollar!

St. Anne Shrine Preservation Society, Inc. will also benefit 100% of your generosity because Facebook will cover all processing fees for donations made.

Therefore this is a fantastic opportunity for us to make significant progress to fulfill our mission which is to beautifully restore this historic shrine church, located in Fall River, Massachusetts, for future generations.
