Church of the Assumption and Church of the Resurrection participate in Perinton Congregations for Flower City Habitat for Humanity (PCFCHH), a coalition of thirteen churches in Perinton which has funded and built seven Habitat Homes since 1999. 

After a one-year hiatus due to the Pandemic, we are back on track to build a Habitat for Humanity house in 2021 with the Perinton Congregations. Rest assured that any donation you contributed to Habitat (2018-2020 as credited to Assumption or Resurrection) will be used to build this house. We have been matched to a very deserving single-mother family and the house will be built on a now-vacant lot on 871 Smith St. in Rochester.

The dedication ceremony took place on June 12. This informal ceremony introduced the future homeowner and gave a blessing by clergy representing the churches in the Perinton Congregations.

Would you like to volunteer to work on this new home? We can be flexible in scheduling based on volunteers' availability since we can choose one full four-day week or individual day(s) for our team to participate. (For example, we can request that the Assumption/Resurrection team works on Fridays in July, subject to Habitat’s approval.)

If working on-site is not for you, we have a second option for volunteering: we are looking for volunteers to prepare and bring lunch to the on-site construction team.

Please let us know if you are willing to volunteer (either as an on-site construction or lunch volunteer) and what day(s) of the week are best for you. Thanks in advance for your willingness to help.

For more information, contact our parish volunteers, George Orosz and Charlie Szilagyi at habitat@assumptionresurrection.org.
