A Filipino Step Print

The Assumptionists of the North American Province have begun a journey which we hope will lead us to establish ourselves in the Philippines. With the encouragement of the Religious Sisters of the Assumption (who have been in the islands for many years) and with the blessings of the leadership of the Filipino Church, we have begun to accept young candidates from the Philippines. Currently, we have four novices and five candidates, as well as one Vietnamese candidate.

On Monday, October 13, a group of men and women (lay people and religious) interested in making this dream come true met at Saint Anne’s Parish in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, to celebrate Saint Lorenzo Ruis and, under his patronage, to begin plans to support and fund this exciting project.


Thanks to those who took part … and to all those who will join our team in the weeks and months ahead. If you’d like to know more about becoming part of the project, please contact Development Office at 617.783.0400
