What’s Happening at AHS

Pray the Novena with Mother Susan and Sister Anthony – Starts 4-10-2020

Mother Susan and Sister Anthony would like to invite you to pray the Divine Mercy Novena with us.

The Novena (usually a 9 day prayer) will begin this Friday, April 10th @ 2:30 PM.

(We moved the chaplet up so those in Davenport could participate in the Good Friday Liturgy of the Lord’s Passion via St. Paul the Apostle’s Facebook page Live. The remaining days of the novena will be @ 3:00PM)

Below is the Zoom Meeting information. Please note the added security feature of a password! It’s “Mercy”.

I will send out the following Novena Days (2-9) meeting links after the chaplet on Friday. I’m not sure if I should put the links in one email, or email one link every day. If you have a preference let me know. Majority will rule.

Lastly, attached is the Novena day intentions and also instructions for the chaplet.

Topic: Divine Mercy Chaplet

Time: Apr 10, 2020 02:30 PM Central Time (US and Canada)

April Knight Postponed

Dear Assumption Family,

In light of the ever-changing conditions surrounding the coronavirus, we have decided to postpone this year’s April Knight. While we will all miss the opportunity to gather as a community in support of our great school, the health and safety of our Assumption Family must be our top priority. If you have already sent in your reservation, we will be in touch soon.

We are currently looking into options for a possible online auction and will keep you updated on any developments there. We are still planning to hold our Early Bird and Grand Prize Raffle drawings as scheduled. Please consider showing your support of Assumption while having the chance to win several great cash prizes by purchasing a raffle ticket or two! Our Early Bird Raffle drawing will be held as scheduled on April 15th, and our Grand Prize Raffle drawing will be held April 24th. You may purchase tickets via e-check here, or you may mail payment to school at 1020 W. Central Park Avenue, Davenport, IA 52804.

Unprecedented times present unique challenges for all of us. In times of uncertainty, family is there for each other, and our Assumption Family is no different. Thank you for your continued support of our mission through your support of April Knight. We look forward to being together again in the future.

One in the Spirit,
Andy Craig

Assistance is needed in placing door hangers on apartments promoting the census.  The hanging period is designated for Friday, March 20-Monday, March 23.  There is no age requirements, but having some adult participation/supervision can be helpful.  Those placing hangers on doors are not interacting with anyone, they will just place the hanger and move on.
