Text Box: CHRISTMAS GALA Assumption parish will celebrate our Annual Christmas Gala/Silent Auction on Saturday, December 6th. This is a major fundraiser for our parish. Due to the fact that we are in the midst of a Capital Centenary Campaign, the tickets for the Gala are $25 per person. Please read the inserts in this weeks bulletin regarding the Silent Auction. Tickets for the Gala will be on sale starting this weekend. VOCATIONS COMMITTEE Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio has asked all the parishes to begin a Vocations Committee. The purpose of this Committee is to meet periodically to discuss prayer campaigns, information dissemination and other ways that we can support the members of our parish who may be called, by God, for married life, the priesthood, the religious life or to serve in another way. If you would like to be a part of this Committee please contact Marianne Bellucci at 718-855-5979. Text Box: PASTORAL COUNCIL The Pastoral Council will meet this Monday, November 3rd at 8:00 P.M.
