Ministries serve adults of St. Mary of the Assumption Parish through
the coordination and offering of educational programs such as small
group gatherings, outreach initiatives, and social events. Throughout
the course of a given year, the topics, ministries, activities, and
subject matter differ so as to present experiences which can meet varied
interests and schedules.

have to take vacation days from work when their child is off from school.
It is a safe, fun environment where children enjoy sports, games, arts/crafts, and the local playgrounds.
Program runs from 7am to 6 pm for an affordable rate.
Children's Ministries: The youngest members of the parish
community benefit from all that these ministries have to offer.

children are exposed to their faith at a young age. Examples of
these activities are the Children's Liturgy of the Word, Summer
Camp, Holiday Cares, and Vacation Bible School. Click here to download and print the registration forms
