As you take the time to explore our website, you can draw a conclusion that we are a very active parish. Assumption BVM is a tight-knit family of faith, dedicated to our Blessed Mother, Mary. We are disciples of Jesus, who worship God and love our neighbor. As you get a “glimpse” of our many activities, I encourage and invite you to experience our family, and enhance our family by sharing your talents and gifts.

At this time, we are praying for new Catechists Aides to assist our Catechist/Teachers in the classrooms during our PREP/CCD school year. Please consider helping us with this most important mission. We pray that some of our parents will be willing to help this coming PREP year. Our goal is to have an Aide in every class on both Sunday mornings and Monday evenings. We are so fortunate that we have 3 new Catechists/Teachers for the coming year. Please consider helping. It is a most rewarding mission, helping our teachers to guide our children as they navigate their faith journey and develop a close, personal relationship with Jesus. We ask for your prayers and discernment. You and your families are always in our prayers.

Summer is just beginning, and our meal supply is getting low. We are temporarily halting meal production in our commercial kitchen for updates. This will further reduce our meal supply. If you have extra meals in your freezer, please bring them to church and place them in the CFF freezer in our parish kitchen. Our friends need these meals all year round and the summer months can be challenging. Please consider taking a few extra trays and sharing your dinners with our isolated homebound friends.
