For several years the parishioners of Assumption Parish have been supporting refugee families as they transition to new lives here in Chicago having been forced by violence, hunger, and other reasons to leave their homes. The Refugee Assistance team and the families we serve are so very grateful.
See an updated summary of their activities. 

Assumption Young Adults will prepare sack lunches for the needy and the homeless Saturday morning May 16 at 9:00 in the Parish Hall.

2026 marks the 300th anniversary of the canonization of St. Peregrine, the fourteenth century Servite Friar known as The Cancer Saint. During the Jubilee Year, pilgrims may obtain a plenary indulgence by visiting a Servite church or shrine (like Assumption), spending time in Eucharistic Adoration, saying the Our Father and the creed, and invoking the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Peregrine.
