Holy Orders and Religious Life: Any member of the parish staff is willing to assist you if you are considering a vocation as a Sister, Brother or priest in a religious order, or as a deacon or priest in a diocese. In addition, the vocation directors of the Oblates and of the Diocese of Venice are available for assistance in discernment. For the Oblates of St. Francis de Sales, contact Fr. Patrick Kifalo, OSFS, at vocations@oblates.us for the Diocese of Venice, contact Fr. Shawn Roser, (941) 484-9543 or roser@dioceseofvenice.org.

Infant Baptism: Registered parishioners should contact Dr. Sue Ellen Nolan faithformation@naplesstann.com or at (239) 262-4256. Godparent documentation must be received at least two weeks prior to the scheduled baptism. Parishioners requesting Infant Baptism for the first time at St. Ann’s parish are to attend and complete a required, scheduled parish Baptismal Preparation Class. If for some reason, the parents are unable to attend the required class, they are to contact the Faith Formation Office to reschedule the date of the Baptism until a time after this requirement is met. Infant Baptism is held outside Sunday Mass. Children over 7 are normally baptized through the OCIC process which culminates at Easter.

Marriage: Couples wishing to marry must meet with a priest before setting a date and at least six months in advance of an anticipated wedding in order to complete the preparation process. For residents of Collier County, one member of the engaged couple must already be a registered Saint Ann parishioner for at least six months before the couple can make a request to be married here. A couple may also request to be married here if a parent or grandparent of either the bride or groom is a regular practicing parishioner. In this case they must have the permission of both their Pastor/Administrator and the Pastor of St. Ann and will usually complete their marriage preparation in their parish of origin. Contact: Nancy Stec at Secretary@naplesstann.com or@ (239) 262-4256.

Prayer Line: Is there someone you want the Contemplative Prayer Group to pray for? Contact Saint Ann Parish Office at (239) 262-4256.

Funerals: After a funeral director has been contacted but before any arrangements have been made public, please contact the Parish Office in order to arrange for a funeral time, vigil service and liturgy planning. Contact: Saint Ann Parish Office at (239) 262-4256.
