Welcome Deacon Bob Zondlak!

August 17, 2025

Next weekend, August 23 and 24, we are overjoyed and proud to welcome long-time Assumption parishioner and new deacon Bob Zondlak to preach at our weekend Masses.

Bob was ordained as a Permanent Deacon for the Diocese of Saginaw on June 27 at the Cathedral of Mary of the Assumption in Saginaw.

For many years, Bob served as our Director of Music Ministries and Parish Liturgy. He and his wife Sandy have contributed so many of their gifts at the service of God’s people both here at Assumption Parish and at the diocesan level. Bob currently oversees the diocesan Office of Liturgy. At the diaconal ordination Mass, Bishop Gruss assigned Deacon Bob to serve at St. Brigid Parish here in Midland.

We will have a reception after both Masses on August 23 and 24 to celebrate this answer to God’s call to serve the People of God in the ordained ministry.

Please come join in the celebration and congratulate Deacon Bob on his ordination!
