PARSIPPANY The community of St. Ann Parish here welcomed Bishop Serratelli on Sunday, Feb. 18, as he served as main celebrant and homilist of the 10:30 a.m. Mass for the First Sunday of Lent. Concelebrating the Mass was Father David Pickens, St. Ann’s pastor.
St. Ann Parish was designated as a mission in 1982 and raised to parish status in 1983. It currently serves some 670 families. Since its founding, St. Ann’s has developed a vast network of outreaches to the community-at-large that addresses a wide variety of needs.
