The angel said to Mary, 'Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favour with God. And now, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you will name him Jesus. He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his ancestor David. He will reign over the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.' 
- Luke 1:30-33 (NRSV)

Bill Simmons' Funeral Service

 

As many of you have heard at church, Bill Simmons has passed away.  Bill and his wife, Dottie, have been long time members of our church.  Bill was great with his hands and often worked around Annunciation after Katrina helping to rebuild the campus.  Bill was a sweet and kind man.  Dottie has arranged for the funeral service to be held this Sunday afternoon at the church.  Fr. Mark Gasquet, a former rector of Annunciation, will preside with Fr. John assisting.
