Annual Parish Family picnic

Please join us for our Annual Parish Family picnic on Sunday, August 16th at 1:00 PM in the Parish Hall as we celebrate Our Lady of the Assumption's Feast Day and in thanksgiving for our parishioners. The church will provide a catered barbeque lunch that includes meats, homemade sides, rolls, cornbread, and salad. We will also supply ice tea and lemonade. Like last year, we are asking each family who attends to bring another choice of beverage or fruit or dessert to share with fellow parishioners.

Pastoral MessageJuly 5, 2026

Pastoral Message: Independence Day

As we celebrate Independence Day, we are re-minded that our nation should not take freedom for granted. We recognize that freedom has a cost, one we celebrate and honor on days such as the 4th of July. It's good to honor those who fight for our country, who may well pay the ultimate price for the liberties we're afforded. Let us continue to pray and let us remember from whom all our freedoms originate, our good and gracious God. Let us pray... God, giver of all good gifts, Help us to be thankful for rest and food, and remember that, in all we do or say, you are with us, here this day. We are thankful for all you do and for everything you have given us. But above all we are thankful for our freedoms and the ability to protect others' freedom. We are free because of you. We ask for your continued blessing on all your creation. Through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
