Dear St. Charles Parishioners,

I want to challenge all the members of our Church to a Rosary crusade! The Rosary Crusade is a Catholic movement that promotes the prayer of the Rosary as a spiritual weapon during times of crisis.

The Rosary Crusades have been organized to inspire prayer for world peace, the conversion of sinners, and the defense of Christian values. These movements emphasize the Rosary as a powerful tool for spiritual warfare, uniting believers in a collective act of faith and devotion.

Objectives of the crusade:

End wars, bloodshed, and conflicts in the world, especially in Gaza, Ukraine, Nigeria, etc.
Pray for our country during an election year that the right person may be elected.
End to gun violence in our country.
End homelessness, help for refugees, healing for those who are addicted.

Goals of the crusade:

Revive devotion to the Mother of God.
Learn to pray the rosary; it could be a community prayer, a family prayer, or a personal prayer.
reinforce our community prayer life.

Start Date: Ocurring Every Monday through Friday During October

End Date: Thursday, October 31

Time: 7:00 PM

Where: Chapel/Church

By the way, I pray the Rosary daily.

All are welcome! All are welcome! All are welcome!

Blessings,

Father Augustine Joseph

Dear friends,

As many of you know, Hurricane Helene has caused devastating damage to many people in the North Carolina and Tennessee areas. Several small towns have been destroyed and cut off from others. I am asking for your help in prayer and with financial relief. Any amount will be appreciated. Catholic Charities USA has set up a donation site, and I encourage everyone to show their support.

Donate Today!

God bless,
