We ate and drank in your company and you taught in our streets. Then he will say to you, I do not know where you are from. 13:26(Luke 13:26-27)

Jesus, you say, strive. Enter the narrow gate; the one leading to your life and love become your friends now, not wait until the very last second to knock on your door at the end of our life. This we cannot do, except with your grace. You offer it, let us receive it. We come from outside. We want to enter and recline at table with you.

Jesus said, Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I tell you, will attempt to enter but will not be strong enough.
(Luke 13:24 )

YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER, WHO HAS NOT YET BEEN BAPTIZED CATHOLIC?

Once a child reaches the age of reason (seven), the child is brought into the Church just as an adult isthrough the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. Following this process of preparation which lasts about a year, the child is fully initiated into the Church at the Easter Vigil through the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and First Communion. In order to have a child baptized Catholic, at least one parent must be Catholic.

If you are considering having your childage 7 or olderbecome Catholic, or if you have any questions, please contact Sister Marie at the parish office, 407.293.9556 ext. 121.

FROM OUR PASTOR

It was on this Sunday last year that I preached to you about the Alive in Christ campaign for our parish. That was the time of our parish-wide launch of the campaign and I quoted words from the second reading of the day, taken from the Letter of Saint James: All good giving and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights. I reflected on the fact that one of the blessings of a fundraising effort is that it reminds us that God has given us so much, so many perfect gifts; and I noted that our desire to give also comes from God. When we give to the church, when we support our families and the children in our school, its a wonderful way of expressing our gratitude; and that desire to give back something, to be generous, is itself a grace, a gift from God our Father. He touches our hearts to make them like the heart of his Son, a heart burning with love. A year ago I asked you to think about what you could give; to pray about it; and then to make a pledge to the campaign for our future. Thanks be to God, many of you did respond to the campaign appeal, even though it was a very difficult time to launch it. We had pledges of nearly $900,000 - less than our goal of 1.3 million but more than we had dared to hope for at a time of almost unprecedented economic recession. What is more, you have honored your pledges so that your gifts are a sign of faith as well as love. Gradually the payments on the pledges have been coming in, and earlier this year the Diocesan authorities began to distribute the money: 35% to the Diocesan projects which Bishop Wenski outlined and 65% to our own parish projects. The latest statement from the parishs Alive in Christ account showed that we now have $119,000 and I feel it is time to begin meeting some of the needs of parish and school that we identified at the beginning of the campaign. My first step will be to form a small committee to decide on priorities, to invite bids and to see the work to completion. The campaign concentrated on three major areas: school facility improvements, updating of Bishop Grady Hall and an educational endowment fund. We want to make sure that each of those concerns is honored so the committee members will be drawn from both parish and school communities, although at Saint Charles there is a great deal of overlap. Fortunately we have many people with expertise in the different aspects of construction projects so the committee will be able to get their advice and we will also be able to consult with the diocesan building department. Building costs have fallen in the last two years so we will be looking to get real value for our money. This is an exciting moment for the parish. Many thanks to all of you who have made it possible, and as things develop I will keep you informed.
