The SeptemberFest is a volunteer led tradition that stems back to 1994. Assumption’s pastor, Father Peter Cipriani had this to say when asked about what the SeptemberFest means to him as leader of the parish. “The Fest means Family! And if there is anything Families need more of today it’s joy…and who better to provide that joy than a Church Family whose generosity with volunteering and donating and organizing is bar none the best!”
Our Lady of the Assumption Church is located at 545 Stratfield Rd in Fairfield.
SeptemberFest hours are as follows:
Friday, September 15 from 6 pm to 10:30 pm
