New Mission Statement

Our Lady of the Assumption welcomes all people to grow in the Catholic faith as we celebrate our diverse community, nurture the Gospel message, and exemplify our love of Christ by serving others.

Welcome to OLA, located in the beautiful college town of Claremont, California. As a vibrant and diverse faith community, we support each other and our neighbors through over 70 ministries and a top-flight Catholic school.

News & Announcements

Fiesta is coming!

It's our 71st OLA Fiesta - All Around the World - celebrating our cultural diversity May 11, 12 and 13 (Mother's Day Weekend) with top-flight bands, five-star food booths, games and carnival rides galore! Bring your family and friends to this exciting, local event. It's worth a trip to Claremont!

Register Online!

Use this quick and easy form to register at OLA parish. It is urgent this month that all current parishioners complete a new registration form before we transfer our records to a new database (if they did not do so in January 2017). Register online, or look for forms in the church vestibule or at the parish office.

Our Capital Campaign

OLA has reached the $2.8 million milestone in our capital campaign... that's half way to our goal! Construction is expected to begin on renovation of our church in 2018. Total pledges in the capital campaign of $5.1 million should enable our parish to upgrade our campus facilities to meet the current needs of our thriving Catholic community.

Catholic Online Resources

Find seasonal prayers and reflections, as well as links to Catholic sites offering insight into the daily Scriptures, inspiration in the Saint of the Day, refreshment in minute meditations, commentary on current events, instruction in basic Catholic teachings, and belief in God's mercy, the value of human life and our ultimate destiny.

Stewardship Renewal 2018

Our annual Stewardship Renewal calls forth our unique gifts of time, talent and treasure. Please spend some time in prayerful reflection before completing the form. This is a spiritual exercise that reminds us that stewardship is a way of life... at home, in the workplace, in our parish, and in service to those who most need our care.
