TEAM HENRY DAY!
ALL STUDENTS AND STAFF CAN BE OUT OF UNIFORM AND ENCOURAGED TO WEAR HENRY'S FAVORITE COLOR GREEN ON MARCH 23RD TO CHEER ON HENRY!

We all Miss you and pray for you everyday!
Thank you all for your support of this year's Fish n' Chips! Thank you to those who volunteered to work(from all the parents and parishioners who filled over 150 volunteer shifts to the Knights of Columbus who served fish and pizza all night), joined us for Family Dining, enjoyed delicious Hecht Fish through the Drive Thru, or stayed and tried their luck at the gaming and auctions. It was great to see so many people attend. This fundraiser benefits our school in many ways, so thank you for your contribution to help make St Charles the great blessing that it is to our families. If you are interested in providing any feedback on the night or would like to help coordinate next year's event; there will be an after-action meeting this Sunday, 25 March, at 12:30pm in the school cafeteria. Everyone is welcome.
If you can't attend, but have feedback, please email James Crinion at  crinionje@hotmail.com . Thanks again!!! 
(Due to this meeting the Athletics Commission Meeting will be cancelled.)

GARDEN BUILD DAY! HELP NEEDED!

We are reaching out to all the student groups, parents, and teachers who have expressed interest in helping to build the new school gardens at St. Charles. We are finally ready to start building, and we will begin with the Vegetable Garden on Sunday April 8 at 1:30. We will be building 10 raised beds, 4 in-ground beds, an arbor, a storage cabinet, and walking paths.

If you are interested in helping out, please fill out the form. This will help us get organized ahead of time. Registration is not required - it would just be appreciated. Walk-ins are always welcome too.

If you are the adviser/head of an organization, please forward this on to your members.

If you are interested in the effort but unable to make this date, there will be build day in August for the Sensory Garden and one likely in September for the Bible Garden.

Thank you,
Chris Bigelow and Chris Glenn


HOLY WEEK NEWS
On March 28, the Wednesday of Holy Week, St. Charles will be holding a  Tenebrae Service at 7 p.m.  in the church. All of the music ministry ensembles at St. Charles will be involved, including the Adult Choirs, Children's Choir, and the School Music Ministry.

Tenebrae is a solemn service of light and darkness. Its origins date to the 5th century. Tenebrae uses music, sound, and silence in prayerful preparation for the Easter Triduum. The format and structure are very similar to Evensong, Evening Prayer, or Vespers.

Please join us for an evening of prayerful reflection before our Triduum celebrations.
