A recent Saturday afternoon saw the re-union of a few classmates who attended the Assumptionist minor seminary together at Our Lady of Lourdes in Cassadaga, NY. Thanks to Frank Aubuchon, who organized the get together at a local restaurant in Worcester, the group enjoyed sharing memories, stories and past experiences of their days in school together. Of most importance were their fond recollections of various Assumptionist priests and brothers who were assigned to the school at that time. It was also an opportunity to ‘catch up’ on their life experiences to the present day. After several hours of sharing these memories with joy and much laughter, all agreed that they would like to get together more often!

According to our "Rule of Life", the Superior General must visit every community in the Congregation at least once during his mandate. Fr. Benoit Grière is our current Superior General having been elected during the General Chapter of 2011. He made the Visitation to the US Territory this past May and to the Brighton Community in the week of May 12.

During evening prayer June 4, 2014, in the Chapel of the Holy Spirit, the Augustinians of the Assumptionists, the sponsoring order of Assumption College, conferred upon College President Francesco C. Cesareo, Ph.D. the Emmanuel d’Alzon Medal in recognition of his efforts to exemplify the vision and guiding principles of the Assumption founder and namesake of the honor.

On Sunday, May 11, 2014, with a procession leading from the esplanade near the local subway station to the Assumptionist shrine and basilica in Santiago, Chile, faithful from many parishes in the Western Region of the archdiocese greeted their new auxiliary bishop, Most Rev. Galo Fernández, who has responsibility for this zone.
