Annunciation Welcome Ministry

We will be giving out Joy signs on the weekend of November 29-30. We need four volunteers for each Mass to help pass out the signs. There is no cost for the signs, but we have a card that goes with them encouraging parishioners to participate in our 5,000 Acts of Joy Challenge. Two people on each side of the Church should be enough. One for the sign and another to hand them a stand if they need it.

If you are not familiar with these signs: Placed in your yard or window, these signs quietly proclaim our faith and help us recognize one another as a parish family. May this gift fill your home with joy as we await the True Joy of Christmas. Many people still have them from years ago. We are making them available again. It helps to make a big parish a little smaller as we see signs pop up in our neighborhoods.

If you have any questions, please contact Scott Stafstrom at sstafstrom@annunciationorlando.org  Thank you for all that you do!

 

Annunciation Welcome Ministry Prayer

Mary, Mother of God,
you opened your heart completely to the Father’s will,
embracing every soul with gentle love.
Help us to welcome all who enter our parish
with that same openness and joy.
May each encounter reflect your heart,
and may all who come find a home in your Son, Jesus Christ.
Amen.
