Each week during Lent, Assumption Parish collects items to donate to a local charity. For the 2023 Lenten season, Assumption is supporting Fisher House of St. Louis.
Fisher House, located on the Jefferson Barracks VA Medical Center campus, provides a “home away from home” for families of Veterans undergoing extensive treatment and/or rehabilitation at the St. Louis area Veterans’ facilities. Guests stay free of charge in a comfortable, and peaceful place while they are able to be near their loved ones.
