Welcome to St. Ann Roman Catholic Church!
We're so glad you're here.
Faithful parishioners, please continue to remember your parish at this time through weekly remote giving via Faith Direct. Without weekly Mass attendance, our financial support is lower than average, and we still depend on donations to keep our church doors open. Thank you sincerely for your support, as always.
We need able-bodied volunteers, so that we can open doors to the public. Please extend a hand, and thank you!
We support Friendship Place during the Souper Bowl of Caring (January), through their Essential Items Collection (September), and with our Youth Program providing "shoeboxes" filled with essential items as Christmas gifts for the homeless (November-December).
Join Catholic Charities DC and ensure our neighbors have the resources they deserve!

With so much uncertainty and challenge happening in our community, it gives me great comfort to hear from so many of you wondering how to support Iona’s clients during this crisis.
"St. Ann's currently has 21 mothers and 24 children residing in our programs. Using creative means, our staff continues to offer clinical and social work services. Social workers check in with families via FaceTime. Some of our moms and older children are engaged in distance learning, and our education specialist is on-site to support them. Several of our moms remain employed in “essential personnel” positions, which are often stressful. Their children are cared for by moms who have lost their jobs. Two nights a week, our Board members provide a catered meal for the families. Other friends have food and household items delivered to St. Ann’s. These gestures of goodness and others abound and give us hope.
In lieu of physical assistance, the Little Sisters of the Poor are welcoming letters to their elderly residents. You can write them words of encouragement and support: Let the Holy Spirit guide you!
