Help Wanted!
During the celebration of the Sacrament of Baptism at Our Lady of the Assumption, a white baptismal (bib-style) garment is worn by the baby. The parish is in need of additional help to make these baptismal garments. There is some sewing involved and a simple pattern is available to assist you. We desperately need additional sewers!! If you can help or would like more information, please call Denise at the rectory (387-7119). !
Please be aware that there are now stricter legal and ethical guidelines regarding, the dissemination of patient, information from hospitals to churches and clergy. In addition, today’s shorter hospital stays make timely pastoral visit difficult at best. Therefore, if you have occasion to be hospitalized and desire pastoral support, you or a family member should do two things. Notify the rectory of the hospitalization as soon as possible. Also, upon admission to the hospital you will be asked if you desire to have your religious affiliation noted as part of your medical record. Please state both your denomination and parish. If you fail to do either of the above, your parish priest may have no way of knowing your needs.
ELEVENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
!!!!
The Expectant parents who wish to have their child baptized are
asked to call the rectory at 387-7119 to prepare properly for this
joyous celebration. Attendance at the pre-baptismal program
conducted by the parish staff is required. The Archdiocese of
Hartford mandates this program prior to baptism. Baptisms are
held on the first and third Sundays of each month. Please call
Denise at the rectory to register.
There is a Religious Education Program available to parishioners
with students in grades 1 thru 10. The classes are held during the
week. Registration through August 28, 2015.
All Students, new to the program who wish to attend, must
register before September 1. Please call the Religious Education
Office 389-9863 for details 10:00am - 3:00pm Monday through
Wednesday.
