Dear Assumption Family,
Today marks the first day of Advent, the season of waiting, anticipation, and preparation for the coming of the lord Jesus Christ. We light the first candle for hope in our school Advent Wreath Monday morning at 8:30 AM. Please consider joining us in the Parish Hall at drop off to experience this student lead prayer service.
To help prepare you and your family for the Advent season, enjoy this short video explaining a little bit about the season. These next few weeks are some of the best weeks to be in a Catholic school community, please take advantage of this season with your friends and family.
Many Blessings,
Steven J. Santoli
Principal
