Please join us at St. Charles Borromeo Church on Saturday, May 4 for a thrilling evening of piano trios! The eclectic program features classic works by brilliant minds, Wolfgang A. Mozart and Robert Schumann, and then moves on to explore the exotic flavor of famed Spanish composer Joaquin Turina, and the passionate tangos of Astor Piazzolla. Enthusiastic collaborators and friends, Sergio Sandí (piano, St Charles Borromeo Music Director, NYC), Francis Liu (violin, NYC), and Natalie Spehar (cello, DC), come together to guide you through some of their favorite works, and look forward to sharing their passion for this music with you!
Providence House Wish Baskets
St. Charles is helping Providence House welcome special needs and low-income tenants to much-needed safe, affordable, permanent, and supportive housing. In the back of the church are examples of bathroom, bedroom, and kitchen basket kits for these tenants. Each basket has wish tags that describe necessities that are needed to fill these baskets. Please take a tag and purchase one or more of these items. The Outreach Committee prays that parishioners will generously help provide what is needed to help set up their homes.
