Over the past 5 years, Fr. Colin's dedication, compassion, faithfulness, and love have been a testament to Christ's presence among us. He's shown us that God is love, and that His love and grace are sufficient for all the desires of our hearts.

To express our heartfelt gratitude for Fr. Colin's faithful service to St. Anne Church and School, we are working with Watts & Co. to create a beautiful handmade bespoke vestment (similar to the red one in the image above). Red vestments are worn on Palm Sunday, Good Friday, Pentecost, feasts of Our Lord's Passion, feast days of martyrs, and Confirmation. The flames on this chasuble represent the fire of the Holy Spirit.

Watts & Co. is located behind Westminster Abbey in London, England. The company has been making ecclesiastical vestments since 1874 for Catholic and Anglican clients, including the British royal family.

Fr. Colin has had his eye on this vestment since he arrived at St. Anne, and now we have the opportunity to make his wish come true! In the event that we exceed our goal, those funds will be given directly to Fr. Colin to help him as he transitions into his new residence.

Thank you so much for your consideration and generosity!
