Assumptionists

On Good Friday, we journeyed up Mount Cristo Rey with students from the University of Texas at El Paso. Led by the Assumptionists, this Stations of the Cross pilgrimage blended faith, fellowship, and the spirit of reflection. Each step up the mountain echoed Christ’s path of love and sacrifice.

Dear Partners
Christ is Risen – Alleluia!
This Easter season fills us with joy, not only in the Resurrection of our Lord, but also in the graces of the Church’s Jubilee Holy Year. It is a sacred time to rediscover God’s mercy, rekindle our hope, and renew our mission to proclaim the Gospel.

Despite the rainy weather, the Latino community at St. Columbkille Parish came together to celebrate Palm Sunday with unwavering devotion. Although the traditional outdoor procession was moved inside, the spirit of the congregation remained unshaken. Many attendees carried palm branches in their hands, symbolizing Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem.

On Saturday, April 5, Assumptionist Brothers Baraka, Aloysious, and Hugo had the privilege of meeting with a group of CSTM international students at the Faber Jesuit Community. The gathering was a spiritual recollection and conversation, centered on the theme “Jesus calms the storm and the waters; ours, too.”

In this video, we share the story of the Assumptionists’ water bottling project, which began with the discovery of a natural water source near Emmanuel House in Nairobi. What started as a small endeavor to bottle and sell water has blossomed into a growing enterprise that now provides crucial resources for the mission’s activities, including its educational efforts.

On Sunday, February 7, 2025, St. Columbkille Parish expressed gratitude to Assumptionist Brother Hugo Morales, along with Gabriel, Wendy and Deacon William, for leading a spiritual retreat for the OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults) group.
