About Saint Ann’s
Designed by renowned architect Isaac H. Green Jr. (1859–1937), Saint Ann’s beautiful stone church opened its doors in 1888. Our rich history in Sayville and beyond has made us a beacon of faith and community throughout Suffolk County.
Our mission:
To the Glory of God, the Family of Saint Ann's Parish, in response to the promises made at Baptism and increasingly inspired by the Holy Spirit, strives to share Christ's reconciling love by our witness and ministry in Stewardship, Worship, Education, Pastoral Care, and Service.
Saint Ann’s is a vibrant, inclusive community where all are welcome. We often say: Saint Ann's Strong. Sayville Stronger. Together Strongest.
We are also an Episcopal Church increasingly inspired by the Charism of Saint Ignatius of Loyola — All for the greater glory of God.
