 Easter Flowers:  Our St Charles church is so beautifully decorated for the Easter Season with donations from our people in Memory of loved ones – see the attached list.  Thanks to them, and thanks to Mary Feldner for obtaining the flowers. 

 

A Happy Easter to all, and a special thank you to Frex and Ellen in organizing the Holy Week Liturgies.  Thanks to our treasured Cantors, and many lectors, readers, servers, Eucharistic Ministers, and ushers.  And finally, thanks to all who came to the services – nothing discourages faster than a half-full Church, particularly on weekends.

 

Church Lighting Brighter:  Thanks to the generosity of Duane Jambois, and the ingenuity of Greg Werner, our Church lighting over the pews is brighter, (particularly noticeable at night).  We briefly investigated new chandeliers but ours are more beautiful than almost anything available.  Thus, Greg was asked to come up with new wiring and more powerful light bulbs for the existing fixtures.  And he succeeded (after spending much time above the ceiling, in the Sacristy, and in the basement).  Please thank Duane and Greg when you see them.

 

The St. Charles PTO Annual Spring Carnival will be held next Sunday, March 30th from 11 AM to 2 PM.  Anyone wishing to donate items can bring them to the school office during school hours or call Meg Buchner at 734-3259 or Lori George at 648-2024.  There are fun games and carnival foods being planned so bring the family and join the fun!  This is one of the major PTO events - thank you for continued support of the St. Charles School.

 

CCD/Confirmation Classes this Week:   Classes continue this Wednesday, March 26 at 6:45 PM at the school.

 

School Year Extended:  The 2007-2008 School Year will be extended through Thursday, June 5th to make up missed days and to coincide with the De Soto School District.

 

Fr Schulte Cemetery Memorial Goal Reached:  The goal of $9,000 has been exceeded ($9450).  The Cemetery Committee has ordered a beautiful Stone & Carving in Memorial of Fr Schulte for installation in the spring at a cost of $9,000.  This will add to the beauty and sacredness of the Cemetery.  Any excess funds will be used for perpetual care.  A Dedication Service & Luncheon is being planned for Sunday May 25 after the 10:00 AM Mass.

 

Benefit Planned for 3 ˝ year old Jordan Lomen daughter of Chad and Vicki Lomen and granddaughter of Larry and Kathy Pedretti.  Jordan was diagnosed with Acute Lymphatic Leukemia on Jan 14, 2008.  The benefit for Jordan, to help with medical and family expenses, is on May 10, 2008 at the Retreat Community Center from 2:00 PM until 12:00 AM.  There will be raffles, Chinese auction, bake sale, music, food and beverages.  Donated baked goods are needed and can be dropped off at Steve’s Country Meats on Friday May 9 between 3 and 5 PM.  For further information, contact Kathy Pedretti at 689-2384.

 

Fr Charles Nabawana (prior pastor) is organizing assistance to Uganda.  For further information, go to www.info@helpkibale.org
