Saint Mary of The Assumption

Catholic Church

We, as a parish family, commit ourselves to grow in our faith, to share what we know, and to be an everlasting light, drawing others to Christ by living His gospel.

We Believe In

God, the Father Almighty, creator of Heaven and Earth.
Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was born of the Virgin Mary, was crucified, died and was buried, rose from the dead, and is now seated at the right hand of the Father.
The Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.

Founded on the Rock

[Jesus said to Simon] "And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it." (Matthew 16:18)

The Bulwark of Truth

The church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of truth. (1 Timothy 3:15b)

Guided by the Holy Spirit

[Jesus said to his disciples] "I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate to be with you always, the Spirit of truth," (John 14: 16-17a)

We Believe in the Dignity of the Human Person, which includes the Protection of Children and Those Who Serve Them.

Summer with the Family

Activity 3

Go on a stargazing trip with your family. Plan to go to a place, which has very little or no lights to interfere with your view of the sky. It can be in your own backyard.

You might want to visit the website, www.skyandtelescope.com.. for their helpful sky chart. Take blankets, binoculars, a flashlight, and something to munch on and drink, but be sure to spend some time in the quiet and the dark to let your eyes adjust to the darkness and to listen to God's wonderful nighttime world.
