St. Charles Parish                                  
August 8-9, 2009

Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary falls on a Saturday and is not a Holy Day of Obligation This Year  Thus, there will be no vigil Mass on Friday evening August 14.  We will have a Mass of the Assumption Saturday Morning at 8:15 AM.

School Copier Donated   Jim Jambois, of TriState Business Machines, attended our 4^th of July Picnic this year, and offered to donate a replacement School Copier for the one his dad, Harold Jambois had donated to St Charles School more than 10 years ago.  Harold attended St Charles School here and was the godfather of our long time principal Janice Jambois.  The donated replacement copier arrived this past Tuesday and was used to prepare this bulletin.  We are grateful to Jim Jambois for this very significant and timely donation.
