We are continuing our sign-up process for Catechism Sunday School and for other youth ministries such as: youth choir, Parathosi singers, Greek Cultural class, youth Basketball, Alter Boys, Greek dancing and our JOY, HOPE and GOYA youth groups.  

If you’ve already signed up your child, thank you. For those of you who do not know, we have moved to an entirely online sign-up process.

We will continue the sign-up process for the next few weeks however, the sooner you sign up, the better we can anticipate the needs of our church community and provide support to both our families and our youth ministers.

Payment can be arranged online via the Church App, found here in this link:

Make sure when paying online on the Church App, you select the proper “drop-down” for the appropriate ministry, such as catechism school, Greek cultural class etc.

If you’re having problems with any of these links, please let us know as we are happy to help register your children. We are here to help. Reach out to Tasha Kardaris-LaBate at [email protected]

Due to the forecasted nor'easter this weekend, our parish picnic originally scheduled for this Sunday is cancelled.

The Church is the Ark of Salvation.  Rain may keep us from a picnic; it need not keep us from the Holy Mysteries.

Come, worship, and give thanks to the Lord and receive His gifts.

A rain date will be announced next week. Please watch the church app, email and bulletin announcements.

Sunday, October 18 - Celebration of National Church Musicians and Youth Choir kickoff, directly following a Music Ministry hosted Coffee Fellowship.

In honor of the Feast of the Dormition of the Most Holy Theotokos, join Presvytera Melanie for a special prayerful reflection on motherhood, faith, and the loving intercessions of the Mother of God.

In this episode of Family Matters: Fully Human Edition, Presvytera Melanie offers a supplicatory prayer to the Theotokos on behalf of all mothers, especially those who experience atypical childbearing and childrearing journeys. Drawing from the life of the Virgin Mary, she reflects on moments that offer comfort, encouragement, and solidarity for mothers navigating unique challenges and blessings.

Through joy and sorrow, uncertainty and hope, the Mother of God remains a companion and advocate for all who seek her prayers.

Listen and pray along as we entrust ourselves and our families to her loving care.

Most Holy Theotokos, save us!

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.
