Last chance to Make Your Reservation for our 'Hello and Goodbye" Picnic

Grab your beach chairs and picnic blankets and plan to attend the “Farewell and Hello” picnic – with Father Martin and Father John as the guests of honor – on Sunday, September 13, from 1:30 until 4:30 p.m. on the grounds of Assumption School and Ministry Center. In order to plan correctly, we need to receive your reservation by this Thursday, September 3rd.

If you have access to email, please email us at
assumption.picnic@assumptionparish.org and tell us three things only:
Family name,
number of adults attending,
and number of children attending.


If you don’t have access to email, call the Parish Office at 973-539-2141, extension 11, and leave a voicemail with the same information. Please note that this is the rescheduled date for the picnic.

Remember, if you made a reservation for the picnic which was originally scheduled in June, you need to email or call us again to make another reservation.

Here are a few pointers and reminders:

· While there will be plenty of seating for our older parishioners, we ask families with young children to bring their own chairs and picnic blankets.

· Because parking for the event will be at premium, why not consider carpooling to the picnic with friends or neighbors.

· Members of our Good Samaritan Ministry are available to give rides to our senior citizens. Please call the parish office to add your name to our list.


· Remember, the most meaningful gift you can give to Fr. Martin to mark this important milestone in his life, is to give a gift in his name to his favorite charity:

Hope House
19-21 Belmont Ave. (P.O. Box 851)
Dover, NJ 07802-0581

Please include a note stating that your donation is to honor Fr. Martin on his retirement.
