Dear Parents and Students - On behalf of our Pastor Fr. Tom Shoemaker, Fr. James, Fr. Koehl, Sister Genevieve, Mr. Hoersten, and all of our Faculty and Staff, we wish everyone a safe and peaceful summer! The beauty and light of the spring and summer brings us renewal and hope as we recharge, grow in God’s goodness through prayer, Mass, and kind deeds, and enjoy family and friends, and some summer fun. We want to come back in August renewed and ready to learn, pray, compete, grow, and love for another year!
Thank you, parents, for your children and your support! You are the primary educators of your children, and overall, you do an excellent job! As parents, let’s try to be firm, but merciful, in word & deed, towards our children. Encouraging our children and one another daily, through prayer and kind deeds, not only builds up our young ones and our community, but also builds us up personally. Be safe. Be good. Stay close to God. Attend Mass regularly. Enjoy the summer! Sincerely - Rob S.
Goodbye & Thank You Fr. Daniel Koehl! Fr. Koehl has received a new assignment from Bishop Rhoades. Fr. Koehl will be moving from Parochial Vicar here at St. Charles, to Pastor of St. Robert Bellarmine Parish, North Manchester. In addition to his new Pastoral duties, Fr. Koehl will continue to be the Chaplain for PFW/IUFW students while also working with the Manchester University students in his new hometown. We thank Fr. Koehl for two great years working with and leading our students, staff, and parishioners, and we wish him God’s blessings of wisdom, peace, and joy in his new assignment. We are sad to see Fr. Koehl leave, but we are confident that he will be a joy for the parishioners of St. Robert’s!
