A Gentle Reminder - Children’s Saint Books

We are so blessed to see our children eagerly reading the saint books that are available in the vestibule during Divine Liturgy! However, our collection has decreased from 125 books to 43. If any of these books accidentally made their way home with your family, kindly return them to the church so these wonderful stories can be shared with everyone. Thank you.

Sunday Collection Basket
We are very thankful for the support of so many families and individuals who financially support the Ministries of our Assumption Church. Your Stewardship Commitment and donations for candles, Feast Days and special offerings help our Church meet the Yearly Budget. Our Parish Council has decided to continue placing the traditional Collection Basket on a table in the Narthex. Parishioners and visitors may offer a donation if they wish following Divine Liturgy and other Services as they exit the Church.

Thank you for your gifts that support the many Ministries and programs of our Church. God Bless you.

We are still looking for basketball players (Ages 8-99+) to join our church teams for the upcoming season. No experience necessary, girls and boys, and part-time players are welcome. Our only requirement is that you attend church regularly. Games start in December and it's a great way to spend weekends with your church family during the cold winter months. Please reach out to Coach Dennis at 203-223-2177 or e-mail him [email protected].
