We are excited to bring this "Latest News" section to the Flocknote.
Here you will find the latest news from
St. Charles Borromeo!
• We will be installing a safety handrail onto the Ambo in the church. This handrail will be installed later this month to comply with ADA regulations.
• In the chapel, we will be installing two shelves later this month. These shelves will hold the statue of The Blessed Mother and tabernacle. The current tabernacle stand will be moved to the left of the altar if you are looking directly at the crucifix. This stand will be utilized as our new Ambo for the chapel. For more information please contact Mary Hengl.
• Our Kiosk area in the plaza is still under construction. Shane Galvan, our maintenance technician, has done a spectacular job updating this new information center. When we have more information regarding the completion date we will let you know. In addition, we would like to give this "Kiosk" a new name. Please contact Holly O'Hagan with any suggestions.
• Fr. Kwame's regular flocknote will now be published on Tuesday, rather than on Monday. If you would like to contribute "Latest News" suggestions please feel free to reach out to Holly O'Hagan by the previous Friday at 5:00 pm.
