About

Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is a small faith- and spirit-filled Catholic community that proclaims the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Through liturgy, worship and witness to our faith, we perpetuate the advancement of Catholic Education, Evangelization and Outreach Ministries.

Working together as a family, we foster, cultivate and strengthen our Christian community spiritually, socially and culturally.

Outreach

Guided by Catholic social teaching, The Church of the Assumption established the Helping Hand Program in 1967 to meet the growing socio-economic needs of our neighbors. Today, the Pope Francis Outreach Center serves over 5000 families annually through our food pantry, clothing closet and love for one another.

Open Monday, Wednesday and Friday, we welcome you into the warm embrace of caring parishioners serving within our community.
