Sainte Anne Parish 

Sainte Anne Parish is a faith community in the Roman Catholic tradition.  We see ourselves as a local expression of the universal Church, the People of God, the Body of Christ.  Through God's grace we seek to be welcoming and loving.  Our life centers on the weekend celebration of the Eucharist.  We meet Jesus Christ in the Eucharist and are then challenged and commissioned to share our faith and to bring His love to others.  You are most welcome to join with us for prayer, worship, and parish activites.  May the peace of the Lord be with you always.  

Dear People of God of Ste. Anne's parish, I write to express my profound gratitude to you for the outpouring of support and affection that I received during the celebration of the 10th anniversary of my priestly ordination, and the conferral of my doctorate in Sacred Theology by Boston College. I thank all those who patiently attended the Eucharistic celebration and the reception at the school hall, on Saturday, July 27th, 2019. Under a very short period of time, you all made me feel being a member of a beloved family, loved and appreciated. With all my heart, I thank you. May the Lord reward you with his kindness and presence. I love you all. God bless you.

Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead?   

Watch it on the Formed Website  - Instructions Below

If Christ has not been raised, said the Apostle Paul, then Christian Faith is in vain. The Resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth is not an incidental or minor aspect of Christianity. If Jesus did not rise from the dead, Christianity is certainly false.

Skeptics have long tried to show that there was no Resurrection. Today, there has been a resurgence of attacks on this central truth of Christianity. Some people claim that the followers of Jesus fabricated the Resurrection. Others argue that the disciples hallucinated or had a “vision” of their dead master, which they confused with a truly risen Jesus. Others still suggest that the Resurrection was a myth or that the Apostles may have seen a spirit or witnessed a “spiritual resurrection” that had nothing to do with an empty tomb and the transformation of Jesus’s dead body. Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead? carefully scrutinizes the historical evidence. Rather than accept Christian belief blindly, top scholars, and biblical historians critically examine alternative explanations. In the end, they show why it is a matter of sound reason as well as faith to affirm what the early Church proclaimed: Jesus is risen.

A fascinating, fast-paced, exciting exploration of Jesus’s fate, Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead? shows how Jesus’s Resurrection has consequences for every one of us.
