This year our parish has been celebrating the Catholic faith for 150 years.
In 1858, the families celebrated mass in our first church.
The 150th Anniversary Celebration will take place on Saturday, August 16th, 2008. Archbishop Nauman will co-celebrate the 5:00 pm Mass, followed by a reception dinner for the Parish. Mark your calendar to join the parish in celebration of our past, present and future.

Note Cards:
To kick off our sesquicentennial year, the 150th Anniversary committee has sets of 14 assorted note cards available for sale. They depict the many beautiful aspects of Assumption Church and are blank inside, so they can be used for Christmas birthday...practically any occasion. They are a great gift idea! The complete set of 14 cards sells for the reduced price of $10, including envelopes. Individual cards are reduced to $1 each, with envelope. Take a look on your way out after Mass.
