Online Faith Sharing

Faith Sharing

Join us this Sunday afternoon for online faith sharing. We join together to pray, reflect on the Sunday readings, and discuss our faith. It is a low-key gathering and there’s no need to read in advance or join every week.

We will meet this Sunday at 5 PM on the parish Zoom channel. All are welcome, especially first-time participants.

In Memoriam: Kathleen M. McConnon

We are sad to announce the passing of parishioner Kathleen M. McConnon. She passed away on July 7 at the age of 79.

Funeral arrangements are:

  • Visitation will take place on Tuesday, July 21 at Joseph G. Duffy Funeral Home (255 Ninth Street, Brooklyn). Visiting hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m
  • Her funeral will be on Tuesday, July 21 at 10 a.m. at St. Charles Borromeo.

Eternal rest grant onto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her.

250 Hours Adored!

On July 1, at 2:40 p.m., with the help of four ardent adorers, St. Charles Borromeo Parish completed its 250 Holy Hours of Adoration in Commemoration of 250 years of our Nation’s existence. Thanks to ALL who have participated throughout the season.

The night before, over twelve pilgrims came and stayed after Adoration and Vespers to break open the Sacred Scriptures, drink coffee, enjoy fellowship, and pray. We will continue to meet Tuesday nights (6 p.m.) and urge anyone looking for deeper communion with Jesus through shared faith to join us!

250 Hours of Adoration

Dear Parishioners,

    In commemoration of 250 years of our nation’s existence, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has asked all U.S. Parishes to offer up 250 Hours of Adoration to the Blessed Sacrament… by the Fourth of July!

    If you, like myself, think we can do it, here’s what we’d need:  20 souls offering Adoration every Wednesday afternoon (Eucharistic Exposition after 12:10 Services) and 44 adorers offering Adoration every Sunday, from now until July 1st (even visiting at the Tabernacle). That would be around 250 hours.

    So if you’re with me, come to Adoration and bring somebody with you. See you there!

Sincerely in Christ,

Deacon Dan Maher

Tuesday Vespers

Every Tuesday at 6 PM, join us for Evening Vespers in-person at St. Charles Borromeo Church.

The Liturgy of the Hours is an ancient prayer continuously offered by all clergy and religious throughout the whole world. The Church urges all the faithful to join in this sacred recitation of the Psalms. We’ll join together in worship and prayerful reflection. We hope to see you there!

Following Vespers, newly initiated members of our church join with other young professionals and parishioners for prayer, discussion, and fellowship. All are welcome.
