Dear St. Charles Parishioners...

• Our Three-Day Lenten Mission Begins on Monday:

I invite everyone to attend our three-day Lenten Journey, led by the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, as they will show us how to “Encounter the Lord with St. Francis of Assisi.”

Our Lenten mission begins on Monday at 7:00 p.m., and is to deepen our spiritual journey through introspection, prayer, and compassionate acts, fostering a community of love, understanding, and support.

Monday, Feb. 26: “Encountering the Eucharistic Lord."
Tuesday, Feb. 27: “Encountering the Mercy of the Lord.”
We will also end the evening with the sacrament of reconciliation.
Wednesday, Feb 28: “Encountering the Healing of the Lord.”

• Fish Taco Friday - This Friday at 5:00 p.m.

Once again, you are invited to Fish Taco Friday in Borromeo Hall - a delicious meal hosted by the Knights of Columbus!

• Safe Environment Training is Required for ALL St. Charles Volunteers:

The Diocese of Oakland requires volunteers and staff to complete a “Safe Environment Training” course. Please contact Mary Hengl to schedule your training today!

• Holy Mass is Now Celebrated on Wednesdays:

Rather than Communion Services, and with thanks to Fr. Sijo Therakunnel, Holy Mass is now celebrated on Wednesdays at 8:30 a.m. in the Chapel.

Yours in Christ,

--- Fr. Augustine Joseph
