Thank You, Jesus and Borromeo,
for an Awesome Holy Week!
Thank You, Jesus, for raising us up to Your new life
of love—changing us and helping us all to grow through
our Church Family here at SCB. All the Holy Week celebrations and Sacraments were so moving and lifechanging. I could feel the powerful love of Jesus in our
foot washing—especially when children washed their
parent’s feet—and in our moving outdoor Way of the
Cross on Good Friday.
Thanks to so many who participated and helped in
many various ways to make them so beautiful and spiritually growthful, especially all of our ministers, our choir
and decorators. We are all thankful to Jesus for calling
our newest members to our Church through the RCIA
adults and RCIC children—your joy and love, enthusiasm and commitment are a witness to us all of Jesus, truly alive and working in us. Please read their stories over
the next few weeks.

Two Important Events Coming Up!

Please see the expanded information later in the bulletin about our
 April 10 pilgrimage to the Cathedral Basilica to pass
through the “Holy Door” during this Jubilee Year of
Mercy,
 and a commemoration of an important event in the
life of the parish: the 100th anniversary of the laying
of our church cornerstone on April 16, 1916. We will
remember this event with a re-dedication of our
beautiful church.
Everyone is invited to participate in these special
events, and check out the other events that we are planning for our parish’s 225th anniversary year, listed later
in this bulletin.
Merciful Lord, it does not surprise me that you forget
completely the sins of those who repent. I am not surprised that you remain faithful to those who hate and
revile you. The mercy which pours forth from you fills
the whole world. It was by your mercy that we were created, and by your mercy that you redeemed us by sending your Son. Your mercy is the light in which sinners
find you and good people come back to you. Your mercy
is everywhere, even in the depths of hell where you offer
to forgive the tortured souls. Your justice is constantly
tempered with mercy, so you refuse to punish us as we
deserve. O mad Lover! It was not enough for you to take
on our humanity; you had to die for us as well.

JUBILEE YEAR OF MERCY
DECEMBER 8, 2015—NOVEMBER 20, 2016
AÑO JUBILAR DE LA MISERICORDIA
8 DE DICIEMBRE—20 DE NOVIEMBRE
ARCHDIOCESE OF
ST. LOUIS
Jesus said “Truly, I am the door; if any one enters by
me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find
pasture. I came that they may have life, and have it
abundantly.”
—John 10: 7-10
During the Year of Mercy, Pope Francis invites us to
contemplate the notion of a Holy Door, “a Door of
Mercy through which anyone who enters will experience the love of God who consoles, pardons, and instills hope.”
As Pope Francis has designated certain church doors in
Rome as Doors of Mercy, so also has Bishop Carlson
designated The Cathedral Basilica in St. Louis a Door of
Mercy. These churches are sites where individuals, families and other groups may make a pilgrimage—a holy
journey—seeking, remembering, and receiving God’s
mercy.
Join us in Pilgrimage and Celebration as our Borromeo
Church family travels to the Cathedral Basilica in St.
Louis on April 10 at 2:00pm where we will gather as
group to pass through the Door of Mercy. Please meet
on the gym parking lot at 1:00pm. We will have a tour
of the Cathedral and opportunities to pray. To complete our celebrations we will meet at Ted Drewes! “By
crossing the threshold of
“The practice of pilgrimage has a special place in the
Holy Year, because it represents the journey each of us
makes in this life. Life itself is a pilgrimage,
and the human being is a viator, a pilgrim
travelling along the road, making his way
to the desired destination. Similarly, to
reach the Holy Door in Rome or in any
other place in the world, everyone, each
according to his or her ability, will have to
make a pilgrimage. This will be a sign that
mercy is also a goal to reach and requires
dedication and sacrifice. May pilgrimage be
an impetus to conversion: by crossing the
threshold of the Holy Door, we will find
the strength to embrace God’s mercy and
dedicate ourselves to being merciful with
others as the Father has been with us.”
—Pope Francis
Jesús dijo "…en verdad, yo soy la puerta, el que por mi
entre, se salvará…, como una oveja que entra y sale y
encuentra pastos. Yo he venido para que tengan vida, y
la tengan en abundancia”.
—Juan 10:7-10
Durante este Año de la Misericordia, el Papa Francisco
nos invita a contemplar la idea de la Puerta Santa, “una
Puerta de Misericordia por la cual cualquiera que entra
experimentará el amor de Dios que nos consuela, perdona e inspira esperanza.”
Así como el Papa Francisco ha designado ciertas puertas
de la iglesia en Roma como puertas de la misericordia,
igualmente el obispo Carlson ha designado la Basílica
Catedral de St. Louis como una de las puertas de la misericordia. Estas iglesias son sitios donde los individuos,
familias y otros grupos pueden hacer una peregrinación,
un viaje santo, buscando, recordar y recibir la misericordia de Dios.
Acompáñenos en la peregrinación y celebración de nuestra familia parroquial a la Catedral de la Basílica de
St. Louis el 10 de abril a 14:00 donde nos reuniremos como grupo para pasar a través de la puerta de la
misericordia. Tendremos un recorrido por la Catedral y
oportunidades para orar. Para completar nuestras celebraciones nos reuniremos en Ted Drewes!
"La práctica de la peregrinación tiene un lugar especial
en el año santo, ya que representa el viaje que cada uno
de nosotros hace en esta vida. La cual es una peregrinación, y el ser humano es un viador, un peregrino que viaja a lo largo del sendero,
haciendo su camino hacia el destino deseado. Del mismo modo llegar a la puerta Santa en Roma o en cualquier otro lugar en el
mundo, todos, cada uno según su capacidad, tendrá que hacer una peregrinación. Se
trata de un signo de misericordia que también es una meta a alcanzar y requiere dedicación y sacrificio. Que la peregrinación sea
un impulso a la conversión: cruzando el
umbral de la puerta Santa, encontramos la
fuerza para abrazar la misericordia de Dios
y nos dedicamos a ser misericordioso con
los demás como el Padre ha sido con nosotros“.
—Papa Francisco
Second Sunday of Easter, April 3, 2016
100th Anniversary of the Church Cornerstone
and Re-dedication of the Church: April 16/17, 2016
On July 7, 1915, a tornado destroyed St. Charles Borromeo Church. Our brick church was blown apart. From
St. Charles Borromeo 200 Years of Faith, “In a few seconds the winds leveled the east and west walls of the
structure, but it left portions of the front and rear walls
standing.” “On Sunday, July 11, over a hundred parishioners met in the school hall to make plans for the construction of a church of at least the same proportions and
beauty as the old church.”
On April 16, 1916, the church cornerstone was laid.
“Archbishop Glennon arrived in St. Charles around 4:00
but was unable to process around the block because
about 5,000 people had gathered on the property. According to Historia Domus, the archbishop then ‘made
the rounds and blessed the walls on the floor of the
church. Fr. Stritch preached a fine sermon and His Grace
followed him with a few most appropriate remarks.’ The
St. Charles Cosmos-Monitor noted that priests from fifteen nearby parishes attended.”
“Into the new cornerstone went the contents of the brick
church’s cornerstone; photographs of the inside and outside of the brick church and of its ruins; photographs of
the current construction and an artist’s conception of the
finished church; a newspaper from July 8, 1915, featuring
a description of the destructive storm; issues dated April
15, 1916, of the Cosmos-Monitor and Banner News; the
April 16 issue of the St. Louis German daily, Amerika; a
long list of contributors; a document signed by Louis
Wessbecher, John Ueberly, and the Building Committee;
and a special memorial written in Latin, in the elegant
script of the Sacred Heart nuns.”
At all the Masses on April 16 and 17, 2016, we will
celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the laying of our
Church Cornerstone and Re-dedication of our beautiful church. Please join us and invite your family members or former parishioners of St. Charles Borromeo to
come and help us celebrate this wonderful anniversary.
We wish you a blessed Easter Season!

El Camino de St. Charles Borromeo
1850—1860
En 1851, el padre Peter J. Verhaegen SJ regresó a St. Charles Borromeo, su residencia favorita. Excepto un breve intervalo, entre 1857 y 1858 cuando salía de retomar la docencia
en la Universidad de St Louis, el sacerdote ya envejecimiento, sirve como pastor hasta su
muerte en 1868. Junto con el p. Verhaegen, había cinco jesuitas en Borromeo, dos sacerdotes socios y tres hermanos que sirvieron como jardinero, cocinero y maestro en la escuela de niños. En su calidad de pastor y asesor espiritual de las
monjas del Sagrado Corazón, p. Verhaegen administró los últimos
sacramentos a su querida amiga, Filipina Duchesne, el día que ella
murió, el 18 de noviembre de 1852. Ella tenía 83 años.
Verhaegen enterró a Filipina en el cementerio en los terrenos del Sagrado Corazón. En
1855 los restos de Filipina fueron exhumados y encontrados intactos. Las hermanas del Sagrado
Corazón colocaron sus restos en un ataúd nuevo y la re-enterraron de bajo del suelo de un santuario octogonal. En 1951, la iglesia de Roma ordenó construir un lugar de descanso más adecuado.
Se inició la construcción de un santuario más grande y sus restos se cambiaron allí el 13 de junio de
1952.
Durante la década de los 1850s, la escuela parroquial de St. Charles BoPadre Verhaegen SJ
rromeo para los muchachos, se trasladó a una nueva ubicación. Durante
más de veinte años, los hermanos jesuitas habían enseñado clases en un edificio de madera construido con materiales recuperados de la vieja iglesia de tronco. En 1851, los jesuitas adquirieron
un bloque de tierra de la ciudad de San Carlos junto al río. Aquí se construyó un edificio que
sirvió como la nueva escuela para los niños, y permaneció allí hasta mucho tiempo después de
que el desarrollo industrial de la zona, forzó a la parroquia a cambiar las clases arriba de la colina de la calle Tercera. Junto a este edificio, se construyó una casa de ladrillo de dos pisos para
reemplazar la vieja rectoría del sacerdote.
la cripta de Philippine
Duchesne
Pronto la parroquia enfrento un nuevo problema en forma del Ferrocarril del Note de Missouri.
El p.Verhaegen escribe, "la otra molestia es causada por la proximidad del ferrocarril que corre a
lo largo de la calle frente a nuestra casa. El soplido y el humo del motor de carga que viene y va
y el chirriante ruido de los coches de día y noche perturban nuestro descanso y tememos depreciación en el valor de nuestra propiedad”. Al mismo tiempo, el ferrocarril repetidamente trató
de expulsar a los jesuitas. Finalmente, Verhaegen considera más sensato negociar que seguir resistiendo, y así que él aceptó un acuerdo de $17,000 por la propiedad de la rectoría.
El padre tomó el pago y compró cerca de la esquina de las calles Franklin y Tercera. La propiedad incluye una
espaciosa casa con un jardín y otros edificios. En palabras de padre Verhaegen, "el sitio de nuestra nueva residencia Pas-
toral combina salud con belleza y está a sólo 200 yardas de la iglesia."

Second Sunday of Easter, April 3, 2016
The St. Charles Borromeo Journey
1850—1860
In 1851, Father Peter J. Verhaegen SJ returned to St. Charles Borromeo, his favorite
residence. Except for a brief interval, between 1857 and 1858 when he left to resume
teaching at St. Louis University, the aging priest served as pastor until his death in 1868.
Along with Fr. Verhaegen, there were five additional Jesuits at Borromeo, two associate priests and three Brothers that served as a gardener, a cook, and a teacher at the
boy’s school. In his capacity as pastor and spiritual advisor to the
nuns at Sacred Heart, he administered the last sacraments to his
dear friend, Philippine Duchesne, on the day of her death, Nov.
18, 1852. She was 83.
Verhaegen buried Philippine in a cemetery on the Sacred Heart grounds. In 1855 Philippine’s remains were exhumed and found to be intact. The Sacred Heart Sisters placed her in a new coffin
and reburied her beneath the floor of an octagonal shrine. In 1951, the Church in Rome ordered the
Society build a more suitable resting place. Construction began on a larger shrine and her remains
moved there on June 13, 1952.
During the 1850s, St. Charles Borromeo parish school for boys moved to a new
Fr. Verhaegen SJ
location. For over twenty years, the Jesuit Brothers had taught classes in a
wooden building constructed from material salvaged from the old log church. In 1851, the Jesuits
acquired a block of land from the city of St. Charles adjacent to the river. Here they built a two story
brick building that served as the boy’s new school and remained there until long after the industrial
development of the area forced the parish to move classes up the hill to Third Street. Adjacent to this
building, they had an additional two-story brick house built to replace the priest’s old frame rectory.
Soon the parish faced a new problem in the form of the North Missouri Railroad. Father Verhaegen
writes, “Another nuisance is caused by the proximity of the railroad which runs along the street in
St. Philippine
front
of our house. The puffing and smoke of the freight engine coming and going, and backing up
Duchesne’s Crypt
and the creaking noise of the cars day and night disturb our rest and we fear depreciation in the value
of our property.” At the same time, the railroad tried repeatedly to eject the Jesuits. Finally, Verhaegen deemed it wiser
to negotiate than to continue resisting, and so he accepted a settlement of $17,000 for the rectory property.
Father took the settlement and bought near the corner of Third and Franklin Streets. The property included a spacious
house with a garden and other buildings. In Father’s Verhaegen words, “The site of our new Pastoral Residence combines health with beauty, and is only 200 yards from the church.”

Easter Sunday Reflection
Many women and men follow Jesus from the beginning
of his ministry. They hear his teaching and witness his
healing actions. Jesus’ resurrection from the dead surprised his friends. The beloved disciple sees the empty
tomb and immediately believes Jesus is risen. Mary Magdalene hears the risen Jesus speak her name, recognizes
him, believes, and announces to the other disciples, “He
is risen.”
Peter and the whole community of Jesus’ followers lock
themselves in a room and pray together in fear. Suddenly the risen Jesus is in their midst, giving them peace and
forgiveness, calling them to forgive others and bringing
peace to them. Thomas doubts that Jesus is risen until he
sees Jesus for himself and believes.
Jesus’ friends witness his resurrection and began to proclaim the good news that God raised up to new life Jesus, who was crucified. The resurrection reveals Jesus’
divinity and his presence with us forever – our source of
joy. Let us go into our homes and discuss how we can be
witnesses for Jesus in our world today. How can we be a
source of joy to all who we meet?

What wounds in the world have you touched
firsthand?

How does your community of faith exercise its power to make peace and forgive?
Thank you.
School and café staff: your patience and cooperation
for the 6 weeks is unparalleled! Thank you.
There are many, many more people helping every week
in the café and behind the scenes, I’m sure we missed
some, and hopefully everyone realizes our Fish Fries
would not have been even half as successful if it weren’t
for each and every one giving their time so generously.
Yes, we are still looking for people to help coordinate in
2017. If you have questions, call us at 636-578-0670.
I hope everyone had a great Easter. Spring is upon us
and the flowers are in bloom! Enjoy!
Sincerely, Gretchen & Joe Thro
St. Charles Borromeo Prayer Tree:

In the Gospel today, Jesus stands in the
midst of us and says: “Peace be with
you!”
During Mass we turn to each other and
say “Peace be with you!” As you put
your gift into the St. Vincent de Paul collection, you say “Peace be with you!” to those who are
poor and hungry.

All of us are challenged to show our love for Jesus by
“feeding His sheep.” Through prayer ask God how you
should best use your time, talent and treasure to assist
those who are in need. Remember that giving is an act
of worship and helps advance the mission of our parish
and greater Church.
We pray that, as disciples of Jesus, we answer the call to
be grateful and generous and look for ways to help
those in need.

Confirmation Rite of Election
We celebrate the Rite of Election with our Confirmation Candidates at the 4pm Mass Sunday, April
10. The Rite of Election brings to a close the process of preparing our young teens for Confirmation;
it does not, however bring to a close their learning about the Catholic faith and Traditions. At this
rite, with the testimony of sponsors, catechists, and parents, the candidates affirm their intention to
celebrate the Sacrament, and we, the Church, make our "election" of these candidates to receive the
Sacrament known.
They inscribe their names in the Book of the Elect as a pledge of fidelity to the Church. Now they are
called "the elect”. This period concludes with the celebration of the Sacrament of Confirmation on April 14, right here at
St. Charles Borromeo, when we welcome Bishop Robert Hermann for the 7pm Liturgy.
Students interested in the Sacrament of Confirmation next year, who attend the Academy of the Sacred Heart
should contact the Religious Education Office to register for the program, which begins in August 2016.
Interested in learning more about our Catholic Faith? The Rite of Catholic Initiation of Adults (RCIA)
continues to meet on Thursday evenings through May 6:30pm to 8pm. All are welcome to join us as we reflect and discuss scripture and Catholic teachings.
Our First Communion students celebrate the Rite of Election at 10am Mass next Sunday,
April 10. At this rite students and parents will commit to living the Christian faith, receiving Communion
each Sunday and living the Gospel life. Students will sign their name in the Book of Elect, which contains
the names of those who have proceeded them in receiving Holy Communion.
We are so blessed and thankful for your continued prayers for the success of all our Religious
Education programs.
In the love and peace of Jesus – Mrs. Becca McCullough
My Faith Journey—Zach Perry (a newly-Confirmed Borromeo Catholic—Easter 2016
I wasn’t very close to God before RCIA. I barely talked to God—didn’t even think about God as a Father to all of us.
The challenges I was facing was that I was not talking to Him and asking Him to forgive me for everything wrong and
that I wasn’t going to church every day.
What led me to RCIA is my Aunt Kim. She was the one that asked if I wanted to go. But also I wanted to be closer to
God and I have become closer to God. I discovered that Jesus will forgive me for all the bad things you did and He
doesn’t hold anything against you. I found about myself that I should have been closer to God before this. I found out
God will also forgive you and He doesn’t hold anything against you. And I found out the church community is a nice
family to be a part of.
The benefit is that I am closer to God and He will answer anything you ask. I am in the stage of becoming a lot closer to
God. I see ahead of me that I am closer to God and that I will always be close to God.
We wish you a blessed Easter Season!

Joke of the Week
A trio of old-timers ran out of tales of their own heroic exploits and started bragging about their ancestors. “My great
-grandfather,” one declared proudly, “was a drummer boy at Shiloh at age 13.”
“Mine went down with Custer at the Battle of the Little Bighorn,” another boasted.
“I’m the only soldier in my family,” confessed the third man, “but if my great-grandfather were living today, he’d be
the most famous man in the world.”
“What did he do?” his friends asked.
“Nothing much—but he would be 185 years old.”
We wish you a blessed Easter Season!
