Friday, November 12, 2026:  Join Us for An Evening Reflection, "Prayer of the Heart"

St. Ann Catholic Church extends a warm welcome to Fr. Loyola Amalraj for an evening program in preparation for the season of Advent, on Wednesday, November 18th, 2026, from 6:00pm - 8:00 pm, on the "Prayer of the Heart".

Dr. Loyola Amalraj, a Catholic priest for over 40 years from Tamil Nadu, India, has BA degrees in philosophy, psychology, and systematic theology. He holds his Master’s and Doctorate in counseling with a minor in clinical psychology from Marquette University.

Fr. Loyola will teach us how to focus on the 'experience' in prayer and guide us in learning how contemplative prayer can calm and transport us beyond a state of mind and body relaxation.

We invite you to join us in a program of reflection, prayer and preparation for Advent.  For more information, please contact the St. Ann Parish Office, 843.661.5012.
