WELCOME TO OUR PARISH Our Lady of the Assumption Roman Catholic Church is one of the many Catholic parishes located within the Diocese of Albany. Following the guidance of Pope Benedict XVI and Bishop Howard J. Hubbard, parishioners and pastoral staff alike strive to live lives of holiness. By way of prayer, celebration and service, we look to embody Christ’s call to repentance and ever-growing faith.

PARISH VISION STATEMENT Our parish vision is to live out the Gospel message of Jesus Christ based on the faith teachings and traditions of the Roman Catholic Church; and to live a prophetic vision by responding to the needs of others in a spirit of peace and justice. PARISH MISSION Our mission, as the community of Our Lady of the Assumption Parish, is to embrace the prophetic challenges of the Gospel in peace and justice and to promote the Christian moral values of our faith. We seek to do this in service to the needs of each parishioner, and in response to the needs of the greater Church. REGISTRATION We ask each parishioner or household to register in the parish. To do this, please call the Parish Office. Parish registration allows us to serve you better because we are able to maintain your sacramental records or individual pastoral needs.
