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 First Friday First Saturday Night of Reparation will be held in our church on Friday, June 5th, starting with the Rosary at 7pm. Confession will be held before the Mass, which begins at 8:30 pm and is followed by an evening of prayer and Eucharistic adoration. The Mass for Saturday begins around 11:45 pm. All are welcome to come anytime during this special evening of prayer.
We have completed another successful PREP year. Our students will return on September 13th and 14th, 2026. Please register all students throughout the month of August or earlier. If you have any questions, please send us an email at abvmreo18@gmail.com. We check our emails regularly throughout the summer months. We are always in need of classroom Aides. If anyone would be interested in assisting our Catechists/teachers in the classroom during our PREP school year, please contact our office.
Altar Servers Registration
Is God calling you to serve at Mass? All boys and girls in grades 4-12 are invited to become Altar Servers. Altar Serving is a great way to serve our parish and learn more about your faith. If you are interested in becoming an Altar Server, please contact the Parish Office (215-357-1221; X33 or X20; info.abvm@gmail.com). Training dates will be announced soon.
St. Josephs Bench
The Mens Group at ABVM, Saint Josephs Bench, usually meets on the 3rd Monday of each month at 7:00 pm in the AMC at the back of the school building. The Bench usually takes trips to various local religious shrines and locations.
Would You Like to Bring Up the Gifts?
We invite families, couples, and individuals to participate in the Offertory by bringing up the gifts during Mass. If you are interested, please sign up in the book located in the vestibule or speak with an usher before Mass. This is a beautiful way to be involved in the liturgy!
Other Mass Volunteer Opportunities
ABVM is always looking for volunteers to become Readers, Extraordinary Ministers, Sacristans, Ushers, or Altar Servers. To inquire about helping your parish, please speak to an usher before or after mass for further information.
Weekly Eucharistic Prayer Meeting Thursdays, 7:30 pm
Join us for our Eucharistic Prayer Meeting every Thursday evening at 7:30PM. There will be Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, Rosary, Chaplet of Divine Mercy, a short teaching by Father Wackerman, quiet time, and Benediction. Come and be renewed by the Holy Spirit! All are welcome! Note that the May 21 session is cancelled due to Father being away for convocation.
We will be breaking for Summer shortly. Our last game until the Fall will be Friday, June 12th. It is so exciting and fun to see our regulars and new friends coming out to play. Hope to see everyone again on June 12!!
The St. Vincent de Paul members are very grateful for all the items donated for the monthly dinners. These are greatly appreciated by the less fortunate people who arrive for a hot meal and get to take needed items as well. Since the warmer, sunnier months are upon us, maybe you could find it within your means to donate sunscreen and sunhats/caps to keep them safe from sunburn. There will be a box outside the bathrooms in the church to drop them off.
Please help mothers and their babies during our Change for Life Baby Bottle Project. Please pick up a bottle on tables in the back of Church. Your donation will make a positive impact on mothers. The donation will support the Saint Margaret of Castello Maternity Home in Bensalem, PA; and the new ultra-sound machine for A Babys Breath in Warminster, PA. Please fill the bottles with your loose change, bills, or checks payable to Regina Mundi 4052 and return the bottle to the back of Church on or before May 31st.
One of our parish organizations, Helping Hands, is in dire need of volunteers. Helping Hands is a group of parishioners who give other parishioners in need a little 'helping hand' with small tasks that they cannot otherwise do themselves. Without more volunteers, this organization will disband within the next few months. To inquire about volunteering with Helping Hands, please contact Ingrid Trommer by phone at 267-446-7946, or by email: ingridsparetime2@aol.com.
Our April Community Meal was a success, thanks to the generosity of so many people. Not only did our guests receive a delicious, filling dinner (provided and served by volunteers), but they also had access to clothing, toiletries, and supplies collected by our St. Vincent de Paul Society members. In addition, our volunteers used leftovers to fill Caring for Friends trays and to feed those at the Reach Out Foundation day center. Our next meal will be on May 28th. For more information about this ministry at ABVM, contact Rose Jacobs, RosemarieJacobs64@gmail.com, 215-219-9047. Information about meals at other congregations and Advocates for the Homeless and Those in Need can be found at www.ahtn.org.
