Thank you to everyone who helped represent St. Ann at the Prairie Village 75th Anniversary Parade! From Scouts to parishioners of all ages...

Today is the 5th Sunday of Easter and in the Gospel reading we'll hear Jesus say, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (Jn 14:6) See you at Mass!

In today's Gospel, Jesus speaks of himself as the gate through which his followers pass and have abundant life.

In today's first reading, Peter urges us to keep our faith and hope in the resurrection of Jesus. What is something you could hope for from God this week?

Today, we celebrate Divine Mercy Sunday, inspired by St. Faustina’s revelations and marking the close of the Easter Octave.

Both the angel of the Lord and the risen Jesus greet Mary Magdalene and the other Mary with these words of comfort: “Do not be afraid.” Alleluia! Christ is risen!

Prayer for Palm Sunday. Blessed be your name, oh Lord my God! As we enter this week of your Passion and Death, keep me in lockstep with you. Help me to be attentive to every word you would have me hear, every lesson you would have me learn. I want to journey with you. Amen.

In the Gospel reading, we'll hear how Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. Who in your life needs to be called back to life? Pray for them. If that person is you, listen for the voice. It is calling even now.

Because He is the light, Jesus sees us in the glow of His redemptive love.

Are you in a sowing phase or a reaping phase? This week's Lenten challenge: Thank someone who once sowed faith into your life. And keep sowing, even when the harvest is unseen.

Lenten Challenge: This Lent and throughout life’s struggles, the Spirit leads you and me into the wilderness. Name one “desert” into which the Spirit has led you: perhaps grief, fear, silence, change, disappointment. Ask for the grace to go there willingly.

Our Lord is so humble that he allows us to see him experience temptation. The vulnerability of this moment is awesome to behold.

This weekend, may we share God’s love with all those we encounter.

Salt without flavor is no longer salt. Light that illuminates nothing is no longer light. As Christians, we must be what we have been made to be.

Today we will hear Jesus' sermon on the mount. He teaches, “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” (Mt 5:3) This sermon challenges us in many ways and teaches us a deeper love.

Today we joyfully celebrate Catholic Schools Week! We pray in thanksgiving for our students, families, teachers, and staff who help form disciples of Christ every school day.

Today, we'll hear how Jesus' cousin, John the Baptist, saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.” (Jn 1:29)

John could not believe that Jesus would seek baptism from him, a lowly mortal man. But our God is a humble God.

There are millions upon millions of stars in the sky on any given night. Yet for the three wise men, only one mattered. The star over Bethlehem meant something different than all the others in the universe. Instead of conveying the vastness of space, it meant something else: Emmanuel. God is with us.

The Feast of the Holy Family celebration reminds us that every moment in our lives can be a holy moment; even those that may seem insignificant.
