ASSUMPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY CATHOLIC CHURCH
1. It’s time to start saving your stuff for the Altar & Rosary garage sale. Drop-off will be the first week in August, and the garage sale will take place Saturday, August 5th.
2. Registration for Youth Faith Formation is $60 this year. However, you can receive a $20 discount per child if you register by July 28. Registrations can be completed after the Sunday Masses in the church foyer the next two weekends: July 15 and 16 and July 22 and 23. We will also take registrations in the Conference Room of the church office Wednesdays July 12 and 19 from 4 – 7 pm. Take advantage of this early registration discount and help ensure we have enough books and supplies.
The parents’ meeting for Youth Faith Formation will be held on August 18, and our first class will be on August 23.
Catechist aides are needed for Kindergarten and RCIC. We also need substitutes for the occasional Wednesday evening when catechists must miss class. If you would like to help, download a volunteer application from our website, pick up a form at the church office, or call. For more information, call Carol Dutchover, Director of Religious Education, 575-622-9895 x106 afternoons Monday – Friday.
3. Next weekend we will have the “Good Shepherd Collection” fund, which allows parishioners to share our resources with those parishes in our diocese unable to raise sufficient emergency funds when needed for facility repairs. Thank you for your generosity.
Under the patronage of Our Lady, and centered around the Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, we will work together to spread Gospel values and the truth of the Catholic faith by living as examples of virtue, and in service to our church and community.
