Dear Saint Charles Borromeo family,
There comes a time in our Christian lives when we feel called to change our ministry path. This is what has happened in the life of our director of learning, Diane Saunders, who will now be the program consultant for the learning pillar. This position will give Diane the ability to work remotely from her home in Arizona, thus allowing more time with her family.
Additionally, our youth minister Justin Swinkels has decided to follow his dream of teaching children in a foreign country. Justin will be leaving his current position to spend one year teaching English and sharing his love for Jesus with children in Spain. Although we will miss Justin, I am happy to announce that Shane Galvan will be taking on the role of our new youth ministry and confirmation coordinator.
Please join me in prayer to wish Diane, Justin, and Shane an abundance of blessings in their ministries.
Finally, be sure to read last weekend's bulletin, as it includes
Holly O'Hagan-Goodman's introduction in article #3 of the summer series titled "Getting to Know the Leadership at St. Charles Borromeo."

How are we doing? What are we Feeling? In today’s world of stress and suffering, there is a thirst and hunger for healing, hope, and joy.
Pandemics, Politics, and Pain, OH MY! San Damiano welcomes long-time master catechist, pastoral associate for children’s programs, and spiritual director, Margaret Riley, along with OCP composer, singer/storyteller, and humorist, Jesse Manibusan.
On August 20, 2022, Margaret and Jesse will lead a day-long hybrid retreat, cultivating compassion and hope. Through song, prayer, silence, group sharing, and listening, we’ll discover new ways to hold space for the good news and the difficult news, the blessings and burdens of life, and how compassion and self-compassion, are the way of Jesus. All are welcome. Come as you are!
