You are invited to First Friday Adoration, Friday June 1st

Please note the change for June: Eucharistic Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament

•  Chapel of the parish center, 9:00 AM until 6:00 PM.

Adoration will then move:

• Blessed Sacrament Chapel in the church, 6:00 PM until 10:00 PM.

All are welcome to spend some quiet time with our Lord.

New for Families!

 Engage your children and interact about how Mass nurtures faith and life!

Please have your child pick up a Step by Step (4-7 year olds) or Footprints in Faith (7-12 year olds) Gospel activity sheets [and a pencil] on the way into Mass.  Children can solve puzzles, complete word searches, and make connections to the Gospel message, all while with their family in the pew!

Also please pick up a "Mass Transit" Card for your family.  One side summarizes the Scripture readings, provides a prayer, and asks a central question, which can be read on the way to Mass (in "Transit").  Then on the way home, you as a family can answer the questions on the back of the card, and connect the Gospel message and your family faith experience to everyday life.

These resources are available at all Masses in two locations:

• the vestibule closest to the Rectory/parking lot
• the center aisle entrance near the holy water font

We invite the St. Charles parish community to join us in praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet, Fridays from 2:45-3:00 PM (Inside St. Charles Church-entrance from parking lot)

New to Divine Mercy? Easy to follow instructions will be provided. Divine Mercy is Jesus’ direct call to us through St. Faustina (1935) and confirmed by Saint Pope John Paul II (2000),  "Hour of Great Mercy" at three o'clock each afternoon, recalling the time of Christ’s death on the cross. In His revelations to St. Faustina, Our Lord asked for a special remembrance of His Passion at that hour. www.thedivinemercy.org
