THANK YOU FROM CHARLIE AWARD RECIPIENT JOAN DAVIES:
”It is with gratitude that I can say I am a member of St. Charles. Accepting this accolade is humbling. Each member working together creates the dynamic parish community of St. Charles. May this spirit live on in our future for many years. Thanks for allowing me to be part of the process.” Respectfully, Joan Davies
DID YOU KNOW THAT ST. CHARLES OFFERS ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT EVERY THURSDAY AT 6:00 P.M.?
Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to step out of the non-stop noise and busy-ness of daily life and rest in presence of our Lord. The sacrament of Confession is also offered during this time, with Adoration and Confession lasting until a few minutes before 7:00 p.m., when Spanish daily Mass begins. Be assured that any time you give to Jesus will be given back to you one hundred fold!
PLEASE HELP US UPDATE THE ST. CHARLES PRAYER CHAIN: If you have placed someone on the prayer chain who is no longer in need of this ministry, please let Vicki Smith know, as the list is getting very long. They can always be put back on the prayer chain if needed. Thank you!
