Through close friends we were persuaded to send our two girls, Trey now a Freshman at St Bonaventure, and Taryn, a 7th grader, to OLA School. Both Geri and I agree that decision was not only a great one, but life-changing as well. We felt, not only were the kids getting a first rate education, but their moral character and spiritual beings were growing as well. “It was good for us because it forced our hand to become more involved with the school and certainly with the church” said...2009-01-2613 minOur Lady of the Assumption HomiliesStewardship - Talent - 12:30 Spanish Mass Sat, January 25, 2009-Felipe Razón and Araceli González are part of the Hispanic Ministries youth and have been an example to the community of sharing the talents that God has given them. They both started their stewardship journey as altar servers. Although very nervous at first they soon found how fulfilling it is to share their talents in thanksgiving for all that the Lord has given us. This desire to share their talent grew and soon they were involved in many things, such as the living stations, the Pastorela and as lectors. They are an example of the "yes" that our yo...2009-01-2614 minOur Lady of the Assumption HomiliesStewardship - Talent - 8:00 am Mass, January 25, 2009Hi, my name is Pauline Riendeau. My husband Ed and I came to OLA Church in 1972. We had three daughters and later on, were blessed with four grandchildren. My main focus at Church was teaching at OLA School and after twenty years I retired. Three months later I found myself a widow. I will forever be grateful to our parish for its support and love that was shown to my family during that difficult time. Then in my new life without Ed, how could I use the gifts that God had given to me? Because we had been Secular Franciscans...2009-01-2612 minOur Lady of the Assumption HomiliesStewardship - Talent - 11:00 Mass, January 25, 2009Gerry and I moved to Ventura in July 1984. We were warmly welcomed to the Our Lady of the Assumption Parish by Msgr. Mulcahy and quickly signed the kids up for Sunday School. That was actually our first opportunity to get involved, as I volunteered to be a Sunday School teacher.
