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.
Reverend Mike Davis

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul has been working to provide needed help to families facing difficult times. As the weather gets cold, some families will need help with heating and utility bills, so we continue to need support through the money deposited in the black donation boxes in the back of the church. As always, we especially need your prayers to strengthen our members and continue to help needy families.
