Catholics Come Home
Is your baptism calling you home? If you have been away from regular Mass attendance St. Ann's in Debary welcomes your return? We want you to know that you will always have a church home with us, regardless of where you are on your journey. There's always an open door here!
We understand that there are people who for one reason or another have stopped actively participating in the Church and attending Mass. We live in a busy culture and society. There are many demands that are placed on us. Yet people are searching for a deeper sense of meaning, for a closer relationship with God, and for a more authentic spiritual identity.
Since the Church is a family, we miss those Catholics who may have left the Church or who have stopped participating in its vibrant liturgy and sacramental life. Perhaps you or someone you know are in this situation and do not know how to come back or how to become active again. The first thing you need to know is that you are always welcome at St. Ann's Church. The Church misses you and hopes that you will choose to come home as an active member. Give St. Ann's a chance - - welcoming is what we do best!
Whatever parish you may call home, St. Ann’s offers support on your journey through our Catholics Returning Home (CRH) program. Catholics Returning Home is a support program that is aimed at helping Catholics return to the Church. The program uses a non-judgmental approach designed to recognize the feelings of each participant, and to help all participants understand that they are loved and missed, and that they are not alone. Everyone is welcome, no matter how long you have been away, and no matter the reason.
If you have questions about our program or would like further information, please contact the parish office at 386-668-8270.
