AHS Thursday Prayer Group
The AHS Prayer Group invites the entire Assumption family (parents, grandparents, alumni, etc.) to gather for prayer and Rosary each Thursday at 8:45 a.m. in the Faculty Parking Lot. Please bring a chair and join us in offering intentions for our entire AHS community!
Every Thursday the AHS Prayer Group prays for the students (each by name, one class per week), students’ intentions (prayer boxes are available in several of the teachers’ rooms), intentions for our entire AHS community, and then conclude praying the Rosary together. Come as you are and come when you are able and your schedule allows. Although many of you may work during the day and may not be able to join, please know, we are happy to lift any intentions you may have and we ask that you remember our prayer gathering and join us in spirit.
