FROM OUR PASTOR
ST. CHARLES BORROMEO PARISH FAMILY
October 30, 2016
Our Parish and Baptism
A Parish is like a family. Indeed the family is called the domestic Church. A family does
not exist just for itself but to raise up children who will be contributing members of
society. In a similar way the parish does not exist just for itself. It exists to help its
members live fully as Christ’s disciples so that they can be both witnesses of a new way of
living and agents of transformation in the world.
More than anything else Jesus wanted God’s Kingdom, God’s Way of Life – the way of Love, to become a
reality in this world and in the lives of each person. The Kingdom of God is not so much a place as it is the
quality of relationships. We sum up the best of our relationships by the word LOVE.
As Disciples of the Risen Christ we, by our lives, are to be witnesses that God will fulfill the promise of the
Kingdom and a sign that the Kingdom is even now at hand. So we are to work to make this world a place of
Goodness, Order and Life and the quality of our relationships is to be marked by love.
At baptism we are baptized “In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.” That means we now
have a special relationship with God: We are God’s beloved. God, the Son, who took on our human flesh
as Jesus teaches us how to act as God’s Beloved.
By Baptism each one of us has been chosen and sent to be a light, a sign of hope, for all we meet. We do so
by making God’s Way of Life more of a reality in our own life and in the world.
Our parish community strives to support each household (both families and those who are single) in their
growth as Christ’s disciple. In turn both families and individuals will strive to be a force for transformation
in the school, the neighborhood, the place of work, the city, the state, the nation and the world.
Transforming the world can seem to be an impossible task especially when we each experience so many
challenges in day-to-day living. Yet our efforts to provide a loving home, to visit the sick, teach a class or
make a weekly donation makes a difference. We also believe that, in God’s providence, the cumulative
effect of what we do prepares the way for the coming of the kingdom when people will finally live in true
love and peace.

grade. We meet between Masses at 11:15 a.m. to
12:15 p.m. in our school building. We also have
a Jr. High Youth Group for 7th and 8th grades
that also meets at this time. Registrations are accepted year
round. Families expecting children to participate in First Eucharist
should be enrolled in Religious Ed by first grade if not attending a
Catholic School. If you have questions about our program or
would like to join our catechetical team, please contact Jodie
Clark at 564-5185 ext. 3036 or by email at
[email protected] for more information.
SOMETHING NEW—FAMILY CATECHETICS:
New this year, we will be offering a “Family Catechetics”
program that will meet once a month for parents, children,
grandparents, or any parishioners who may want to attend.
We will meet in Feist Hall at 11:15 a.m. and then excuse the
children to their classrooms at 11:35 a.m. while adults remain
for a special video presentation. This year we will be looking
at the Bible and using Ascension Press’ “Unlocking the Mysteries
of the Bible” series. Come join us! Our next session is
November 6th! Questions? Call Jodie Clark at 564-5185
ext. 3036.
Our school is hosting a Veteran's Day Assembly on
Nov. 10th with refreshments starting at 1:00 p.m.
and the program beginning at 1:30 p.m. in Feist Hall.
We would like to welcome any and all Veteran's
who have served our country and any current service
personnel who are currently serving.
The school children will be honored by your presence.
Mr. Dan Hill, Principal
Dear St. Charles Borromeo Parishioners,
I can hardly believe this weekend brings us to the end of
another month. Say goodbye to October and hello to
November! We ended the week this week with no school due
to parent-teacher conferences. On Thursday and Friday our
teachers sat down with parents to conference about
academics, goals, and ways to build positive relationships with
each other. Good and positive communication between
parents and teachers (and students) is very important to a
child’s education. That seems like a simple concept but with
the busyness of life, it sometimes is easy to forget. Finally, I
wanted to make sure the parishioners and their kids know
they are invited to attend our Trunk or Treat event after
school on Monday (Halloween), from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. in the
parking lot next to the gym. Hope to see you here!
Thank you for your support, and please remember to keep our
students, and teachers, in your daily prayers.

relationship with Jesus Christ and return to their
parish communities with ardor for the Gospel.
Parents, please consider sending your youth to
the Catholic Youth Convention 2016. CYC can
be a truly powerful experience that will help our
youth develop a deeper connection to Christ and
grow as active participants in the Church.
The Convention is taking the place of this year's
Lock-in and is part of Confirmation preparation
but open to all teens of our parish. Please

Two Great Feasts:
All Saints Day, Tuesday, November 1st
Masses at 9 a.m., 12 Noon, and 7 p.m.
All Souls Day, Wednesday, November 2nd
Mass at 9 a.m.
On All Saints Day, a Holy Day of Obligation when Catholics celebrate all the saints, known and
unknown. We remember all those who have lived lives of heroic holiness, whether the Church has
canonized them or not.
All Saints is a surprisingly old feast day. It arose out of the Christian tradition of celebrating the
martyrdom of saints on the anniversary of their martyrdom. The evening before, now known as
Halloween, was originally called All Hallows Eve, or the evening before the feast of All Saints.
On All Souls Day, we remember all those who have died.
It is appropriate to commemorate All Souls Day by praying for those who have gone before us in faith.
We invite anyone who has suffered a loss to come to the Mass of All Souls on November 2nd at 9 a.m.
If you would like to bring a photo of your loved one we will place them on a table in the church.
We will pray that all of our beloved dead may be welcomed to their place at the heavenly banquet.
Passion for Justice: Supporting Victims of
Trafficking in the Northwest Detention Center
The Multifaith Coalition to Address Human Trafficking Through the
Lens of Compassion is appealing to faith communities in the
Tacoma-area to join us as we seek out justice-oriented legal
professionals and concerned community-members to support
detainees in the NW Detention Center that are victims of
human trafficking. Right here in Washington, victims of
human trafficking are being kept in immigrant detention
centers with little chance to access legal help. These victims of
human trafficking are eligible for a T-Visa, which will allow
them to stay in the country legally, but without legal counsel,
these visas are rarely obtained.
Come join us on Wednesday, November 16th at 7 p.m. at
St. Leo Church (Bichsel Hall) to hear how the faith and legal
community in Western Washington can come together to help
these trafficking victims, and hear the story of one labor
trafficking survivor and previous detainee at the NW Detention
Center. You can help with lifesaving services and take steps to
reduce trafficking in our community.

Do you know someone struggling
who is separated or divorced?
We want to recommend a new book titled

begin to rebuild one’s emotional, spiritual, physical,
familial and financial life after divorce.
