St. Ann, Bethany Beach

The parish began as a mission of Saint Edmond parish in Rehoboth Beach but later became a mission of Saint Michael the Archangel in Georgetown.

The church became a parish in its own right with the appointment of a resident priest in 1972. At that time, a new church was constructed with seating for approximately 900 people. The original church was then converted to the social hall, now known as Delaney Hall. In 1989, a new building, now called the Masterson Center, was constructed to house the religious educational classes. Subsequently land adjacent to the church was acquired, and the building of a new Rectory was begun in 2000.

In the early 2000's, the parish partnered with the other churches in the areas to plan, construct and sponsor Most Blessed Sacrament School in Ocean Pines, MD which opened in 2003.

Further inland from the church, the community continued to grow which necessitated the building of another church. In 2006, Our Lady of Guadalupe Church was established as a mission of Saint Ann. It offers a Saturday evening Mass, a Sunday morning Mass, and a Spanish Mass Sunday afternoon for members of the Hispanic community.

With the closure of Christ Our King Parish in 2016, Saint Ann acquired the Blessed Mother altar, the pulpit, and the Infant of Prague statue.
