Memorial Confraternity. All Moms will be

will also be
remembered
at a Mothers'
Memorial
Confraternity Mass to be offered once-per-month June 2016

Office after Mass today. Your free-will offering will be

May 8, 2016
This Sunday, May 8, is Mothers’ Day.
At all our Masses this weekend we will remember
our moms, both the living and the deceased. Our
Youth Group is sponsoring a Mothers’ Day Carnation Sale.
Today the Church marks the Solemnity of the Ascension.
At one time, the Ascension was celebrated exactly forty days after
Easter (which would have fallen on last Thursday.) In recent
years, many Bishops in the United States have transferred the
observation of the Ascension to the Sunday following the forty-day
observance.
This Thursday, May 12, at 7:00pm in church (the
7:00pm Mass that evening will be celebrated in Merici Chapel)
we will host Christopher West, internationally known Catholic
speaker and evangelist.
West’s presentation is entitled
“Life, Love, and Mercy.” West is a dynamic speaker, originally
inspired by St John Paul II and now highly motivated by Pope
Francis’ Year of Mercy. St Charles has offered some excellent
speakers in year’s past; Christopher West is one of the best and
will be long-remembered. See you Thursday evening! Our
recently founded Evangelization Commission heartily endorses
this presentation. In Pope Francis’ words, “ministers of the
Church must be ministers of mercy above all.”
I have asked each 2016-2019 candidate for Parish Council
to tell us a little about (him/her)self. You will find those statements
in this bulletin. Please look them over and then select your four
candidates. The Parish Council election will take place next
weekend before Mass begins. Thank you to all who accepted
nomination.
Four years ago, St Charles parishioners pledged generously
to the diocesan-wide Rooted in Faith Capital Campaign. Thirty
percent of the funds received are returned to St Charles.
We agreed at the time of the campaign that our share would be set
aside in a Rainy Day Fund for unexpected but necessary improvements/repairs to our parish plant. This week we were faced with
areas of asphalt in our parking lot requiring immediate attention.
At last Thursday’s meeting, our Finance Council reviewed the
situation. It is more cost-effective to provide concrete pavement at
the east entrance of the Charles Ave lot, in front of the PAC.
Asphalt in the Wilber Ave lot will be patched. We are also
examining the replacing of other asphalt areas with concrete. Our
Rainy Day Fund will bear the cost. Work should be completed in
June (before the Carnival!)
Some sharp young priests of our Diocese have begun a
program called “Theology on Tap.” It caters to young adults, in
their 20’s and 30’s. Fr Tim Roth (St Charles born and bred) is
now associate pastor at St Angela in Fairview Park; he is a mover
and shaker in this endeavor. There is a social, appetizers, and
a cash bar. An interesting and informative talk is then given. The
locale is Beach Cliff Tavern, 19245 Detroit Ave in Rocky River.
Each evening begins at 7:00. This Wednesday, May 11, Jacob
Bearer, St Mary seminarian, will speak on “Mary, Not Just Your
Gramma’s Momma.” The next presentation will be Wednesday,
June 8. Eric Garris will offer “All In: Mysticism or Nothing At
All.” By the way, Father Terry and Father Ryan have already
been guest speakers—to sell-out crowds! Check the bulletin
article for details.
