Three years ago, our combined parish council was formed from leaders among our three parishes. They have done amazing work in helping shape our mission, vision and values, and are in the process of setting up our commissions to help give everyone in the parish a chance for more active leadership in accomplishing that mission. But we need your help! We originally had three members from each parish on the council, plus a chairperson. We are down two members, and so need a member of St. Peter and a member of Assumption to fill those roles.
Come for an evening of food, fun and community on Saturday, April 13. You’ll enjoy a spaghetti dinner and bingo at St. Richard. Dinner will be from 5-7 p.m. Bingo will start right after dinner.

Join us weekly for the 14-step journey of Jesus’s passion, crucifixion, death and burial./Únase a nosotros semanalmente en el viaje de 14 pasos de la pasión, crucifixión, muerte y sepultura de Jesús.
The first Sunday in February is Scout Sunday. Scout Sunday was established to bring greater awareness to Scouting and to allow Scouts to live out their “Duty to God,” which is pledged at every Scout meeting. El primer domingo de febrero es el Domingo Scout. El Domingo Scout se estableció para generar mayor conciencia sobre el Movimiento Scout y permitirles vivir su “Deber hacia Dios”, que se compromete en cada reunión Scout.
As disciples of Christ, called into community by the Holy Spirit for the glory of God, we, the parishes of Assumption, St. Peter and St. Richard, joyfully share the gospel of Jesus and serve those we meet for the building up of the kingdom of God.
