This morning, you are invited to participate with us by viewing our 9:30 am live-streamed Mass, which celebrates the Solemnity of Mary, Holy Mother of God.
Afterward, from 10:30 am until 11:30 am, those who wish to do so may come to the church to receive Communion. I look forward to seeing you!

PROJECT SMILE
We hope you’ve been following our series on gratitude these last few weeks. To culminate our series, we’d like for you all to participate in our PROJECT SMILE, which will take us from Christmas, Dec 25, 2020, to the Epiphany, Jan 6, 2021.
If you read our list of ways to express gratitude, you might have noticed that the last one was a quote by Mother Teresa: “Let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.” What better way to express our love and gratitude for one another, and within our parish community, than with your smile?
Here is how it works:
1.) Take a picture of your big smile!
(1-2 people in a picture is ok. The smaller the
group, the more your smile can be seen and felt!)
(1-2 people in a picture is ok. The smaller the
group, the more your smile can be seen and felt!)
2.) Create a gratitude statement
For example, “I am grateful for my family”,
or “I am grateful to see the sunshine every day”,
or “I am grateful for my morning cup of coffee”.
For example, “I am grateful for my family”,
or “I am grateful to see the sunshine every day”,
or “I am grateful for my morning cup of coffee”.
3.) Send the picture and your gratitude statement
We will create a slideshow with the pictures and gratitude statements, and we will share that slideshow on the parish YouTube channel for everyone to see! It will remain there to be viewed whenever you need your spirits to be uplifted or need to see your St. Charles community smile back at you! Feel free to share PROJECT SMILE with your friends and family, near and far.
If you have any questions, send them to the email address above.
Thank You for Your Participation!
