Assumption is for Families...
Ongoing Programs, Ministries and Special Events for parishioners of all ages for worship, and community building year-round.
We celebrate the 10:00 AM Sunday Mass as the Family Mass. We invite ALL families to come and join us at this time to praise God and celebrate the Mass as one Catholic family.
Children's Liturgy of the Word
During the 10:00 AM Mass the children are invited to process from the main church to the lower church and experience God’s presence in the Proclamation of the Word of God, presented on their level in an interactive format.
Youth Group
Our Youth Group seeks to create a family of youth to foster a relationship with Jesus Christ. Through social events and trips, community outreach and service leadership, we will build this family to create a strong and personal relationship with Jesus.
We welcome all young people grade 6 and up.
We also welcome adult volunteers to support our youth by providing leadership and support.
Feel free to follow us on Facebook as well!

Families Report a Happier Life
by Practicing the Faith
Did you know that a 2023 study showed families who take part in at-home religous practices and go to Sunday Mass report high-levels of meaning in life, happiness and high quality marriages?
We have proven ways to engage the whole family in a life of faith. It just takes small steps. Let's meet, once we get to know more about you, we can show you how to get started.
Are you ready?

What to do after your babies' Baptism
Congratulations - you have a New Baby!
Babies are truly a gift from God. They need to be baptized. In this sacarment they are freed from Original Sin and are welcomed into the community of the Church, where they have access to the fullness of the means of salvation. The graces of baptism are with them their whole life.
But, Baptism is only the beginning. Those graces are meant to be kept alive “throughout the rest of your families' life, and Christ is always there with you to be your guiding light.”
How do you start? Find out what God sees as the mission of a family. How can the family practice the Catholic faith at home, in its parish, and in today's society?Join me for a few brief sessions. I can meet you in your home or via Zoom to go through these easy steps to begin.
