The Commons: Building a Better Future

We are excited to share our vision for The Commons Building, a 9,500 sq. ft. space designed to serve the entire Church of the Assumption community.

What is The Commons?

The Commons will be the heart of our parish campus, bringing together vital ministries, staff, and resources under one roof. It will provide a residence for our parish priest, offices for parish staff, ministry and meeting rooms, a Boy Scout Den and Academy Makerspace, maintenance and storage areas, and modern, accessible restrooms.

Why Build Now?

This project is more than just a building. It is an investment in our parish’s future. The Commons will replace deteriorating infrastructure, improve campus flow and parking, create a unified and visible parish campus, and strengthen support for our school and parish ministries.

Our Vision

Together, we are building more than a building. We are creating a vibrant space for faith, fellowship, learning, and community. The Commons will help us grow as a parish family and continue our mission of service.

Be Part of the Future

Your support makes this vision possible. Every gift brings us closer to building The Commons and shaping the future of our parish.

Cost

The Commons Building is a $2.50 million project.  We have raised $1.00 million as of today. A portion of this year's #weGIVECATHOLIC fundraiser will be used to raise the remaining $1.50 million needed to begin construction.  To view our progress, please visit:  Track Our Progress
