From the Desk of Father José…..
Today in our Gospel we are given the marvelous parable of the prodigal son. Jesus instructs those who were judging Him because He was being inclusive and accepting of those people who “did not fit” and was demonstrating that those same people belonged. He even ate with them and celebrated with them. For many of us, this Gospel reminds us of different times in our lives where we feel accepted, or even at times where we feel jealous because others are being accepted. It also perhaps reminds us of the patience of the father simply waiting for his son to come home. All through the Gospel, the theme of acceptance and welcoming love from God is told to us. I pray this same acceptance continues to permeate here in our St. Charles parish community. But this community is not just for us who think and feel like we “fit” in the community but especially for the many who are coming and calling us their home; many do not participate in our ministries
or even the social gatherings that we have. And yet, they are hungry for the Lord too! This is why for the past couple of months I have been asking for ideas how to make us more of an inclusive parish where all feel welcome. The past couple of Sundays, since the weather has been getting so much nicer, I have noticed so many of the parents who gather outside of the Church while their small children are playing. I have been talking to them and asking them as young families how we can be more welcoming, just at the Lord reminds us in the Gospel. The number one answer I have received is by doing what you are doing Father! Simply talking to us and not judging us because our children are being loud in Church. This has hit home at so many levels. May we take some time to welcome those who are here and simply pray that we may become even more welcoming. As you are coming to Church in the next couple of weeks you will notice that we are creating a new gathering space in between the Church and the Rectory. It will be called “St. Charles Piazza.” From the beginning when I arrived here as your pastor, I was asked by many of you as parishioners what do I need or wish? I took some time, and started saying out loud soon after I arrived that we needed a place to gather and be more visible to our parishioners as they leave Church on Sundays. The Friendship Sunday is wonderful and very inviting, too, but a bit far for some of our parishioners who just leave for so many reasons. I pray that with our wonderful weather, wonderful background of the Church, and wonderful openness of our parishioners, this new dedicated place to gather may be not just a Piazza where we eat and leave but where were share and care for one another. I have secured enough funds to start this project. It will come to full life in the next couple of weeks. Thank you to so many who have believed in the mission of simply gathering and being welcoming. May the prodigal Son remind us each to feel the need to come to the table, and may the love of the Father simply remind us to be patient with ourselves and others as they approach the table of the Lord. Gratefully, Fr. José
Del Escritorio del Padre José…..
Hoy en nuestro Evangelio se nos da la maravillosa parábola del hijo pródigo. Jesús instruye a aquellos que lo estaban juzgando porque estaba siendo inclusivo y aceptaba a aquellas personas que "no encajaban" y demostraba que esas mismas personas pertenecían. Incluso comió con ellos y celebró con ellos. Para muchos de nosotros, este Evangelio nos recuerda los diferentes momentos de nuestra vida en los que nos sentimos aceptados, o incluso en los momentos en que nos sentimos celosos porque otros están siendo aceptados. Quizás también nos recuerde a la paciencia del padre simplemente esperando que su hijo regrese a casa. A lo largo del Evangelio, se nos dice el tema de la aceptación y la acogida del amor de Dios. Ruego que esta misma aceptación continúe impregnando aquí en nuestra comunidad parroquial de St. Charles. Pero esta comunidad no es solo para nosotros que pensamos y sentimos que "encajamos" en la comunidad, sino especialmente para los muchos que vienen y nos llaman su hogar; muchos no participan en nuestros ministerios o incluso en las reuniones sociales que tenemos. ¡Y sin embargo, ellos también tienen hambre por el Señor! Esta es la razón por la cual durante los últimos meses he estado pidiendo ideas sobre cómo convertirnos en una parroquia inclusiva en la que todos se sientan bienvenidos. Los pasados domingos, ya que el clima se ha vuelto mucho mejor, he notado que muchos de los padres se reúnen fuera de la Iglesia mientras sus hijos pequeños juegan. Les he estado hablando y les he preguntado a las familias jóvenes cómo podemos ser más acogedores, solo en el Señor nos recuerda en el Evangelio. ¡La respuesta número uno que he recibido es haciendo lo que estás haciendo, padre! Simplemente hablándonos y sin juzgarnos porque nuestros hijos hablan en voz alta en la Iglesia. Esto ha golpeado a casa en muchos niveles. Que nos tomemos un tiempo para dar la bienvenida a los que están aquí y simplemente oremos para que seamos aún más acogedores. A medida que vaya a venir a la Iglesia en las próximas semanas, notará que estamos creando un nuevo espacio de reunión entre la Iglesia y la Rectoría. Se llamará “San Charles Piazza ”. Desde el principio, cuando llegué aquí como su pastor, muchos de ustedes, como feligreses, me preguntaron qué es lo que necesito o deseo. Me tomé un tiempo y comencé a decir en voz alta poco después de llegar que necesitábamos un lugar para reunirnos y ser más visibles para nuestros feligreses cuando salen de la Iglesia los domingos. El Domingo de la Amistad es maravilloso y muy atractivo, también, pero un poco lejos para algunos de nuestros feligreses que se van por muchas razones. Rezo para que con nuestro maravilloso clima, el maravilloso trasfondo de la Iglesia y la maravillosa apertura de nuestros feligreses, este nuevo y exclusivo lugar para reunirse no sea solo una Piazza donde comemos y nos vayamos, sino que compartamos y nos cuidemos mutuamente. He asegurado suficientes fondos para iniciar este proyecto. Llegará a la vida plena en las próximas semanas. Gracias a tantos que han creído en la misión de simplemente reunirse y ser bienvenidos. Que el Hijo pródigo nos recuerde a cada uno que sintamos la necesidad de venir a la mesa, y que el amor del Padre simplemente nos recuerde que debemos ser pacientes con nosotros mismos y con los demás cuando se acercan a la mesa del Señor. Con agradecimiento, Padre José

REPORTING ABUSE/MISCONDUCT It is important to communicate your concerns if you observe anyone interacting with a child
in an inappropriate manner. Parents, family members, teachers, clergy and all who work with or are responsible for the care of children need to remember that speaking up is one of the most important
things they can do to protect not just their own children, but all children. Voicing your concerns is critical to protecting God’s children. Any incident of abuse or misconduct should be immediately
reported. For a copy of the complete VIRTUS® article, “Are We Communicating our Concerns?,” please visit http://www.la-archdiocese.org/org/protecting/Pages/VIRTUS-Current-Online-Articles.aspx.
DENUNCIA DE ABUSO/MALA CONDUCTO Si usted observa a alguien interactuando con un niño o una niña en una forma inapropiada, es importante que
comunique sus preocupaciones. Los padres de familia, miembros de la familia, profesores, sacerdotes y todos aquellos que trabajan con niños o son responsables del cuidado de niños, necesitan recordar que elevar la voz puede ayudar a proteger
no sólo a sus propios hijos, sino a todos los niños. Hablar sobre sus preocupaciones es muy importante para proteger a los hijos de Dios. Cualquier incidente de abuso o conducta inapropiada debe ser reportado inmediatamente.

Sundays of this new liturgical year, beginning today. The study essays are written by Msgr. Peter Nugent, and are to be found on the St. Charles parish website. Search more deeply into this beautiful telling of the coming of Christ among

Do you fast? Give me proof of it by your works. If you see a poor man, take pity on him. If you see a friend being honored, do not envy him. Do not let only your mouth fast, but also the eye, and the ear, and the feet, and the hands, and all the members of our bodies. St. John Chrysostom
Donations We Especially Need Men’s work pants and jeans all sizes
Canned meat such as tuna Peanut butter
Tab top cans of food that can be meals, and individually wrapped servings of protein bars, nuts, or other healthy items Sturdy walking shoes
Blankets and sheet sets, marked by size Toothpaste, especially small and medium-sized tubes, and toothbrushes, soap, shampoo
Some Things You Can Buy to Donate We often need medium and smaller tubes of toothpaste for our single clients. We save the large ones for
families. Look on the big online retail sites for cases of small or medium sized toothpaste tubes. Consider buying men’s jeans or work pants at the big inexpensive stores or at thrift stores.
We are always in short supply, so this is an ongoing need. Bags of new socks and white T-shirts from the big inexpensive stores will be especially helpful for our hot shower ministry.
Please Consider a Regular Gift You may see that we ask for some of the same “especially needed” donations almost every week. It’s not
because we don’t want to write a new list. It’s because we are often, and in some cases always, in short supply and unable to provide those items. It would be a wonderful form of giving to pick an item from that list, and
make a practice of donating some of that same item periodically, perhaps monthly. Men’s pants, toothpaste, peanut butter, and canned meat are great ideas. In the summer when it gets hot, a case of water monthly is a great idea.
Volunteering at the Service Center Please think about joining our team of volunteers if you are looking for an opportunity to help with our parish ministries. Volunteers are expected to serve one morning a week (or more if you like). You can stop by during our operating hours to
fill out an application and to get an idea for how we work and how you can help. You’ll need your photo ID to apply.
Please ring the bell at the west side door of the Service Center for donation drop off during our regular operating hours of Tues, Wed, Thurs, Sat, & Sun 9 - 11:45 am.
