Dear Parishioners,

Ministry is at the heart of our community. We all minister to each other on many different levels. Here at the Church of the Annunziata, we are always interested in anyone who would like to minister to the people of God. As we prepare to enter into our 96th year of serving the people of mid-St. Louis County, let us reflect on the gifts we have and how we can share them with others.
