The Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is August 15. This holy day of obligation celebrates that when the Virgin Mary died, her body was "assumed" into heaven to be reunited with her soul, instead of going through the natural process of physical decay upon death. Review the special mass schedule for this upcoming feast...  Online registration is open for Totus Tuus Youth Ministry Summer Camp (July 21st-26th, 2024)! What is Totus Tuus? Totus Tuus is a week-long, summer youth retreat for young people in first through 12th grade. Participants will grow in their faith through skits, games, songs, the celebration of the sacraments, and engaging, interactive teaching. The Totus Tuus program is built upon five pillars: love for the Eucharist, Marian devotion, authentic catechesis, Christian vocations, and fun! Our hope is to deepen the relationship our young people have with the Lord Jesus, while showing them how exciting a lifetime adventure with the Lord can be. A Totus Tuus promise: If you can convince your kids to come the first day, we promise you they’ll want to come back the next day!
