Outreach Committee
The Outreach Committee meets the first Sunday of the month (except in the summer) after 10:30 am Mass in the Sacristy. Please consider attending our May meeting to help plan for the rest of the spring and fall. There are many ways we can live our church’s mission. We are looking forward to reaching out to Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary parish on Richards Street, which has always served the working poor and new immigrants in Red Hook. The Knights of Columbus actually distribute non-perishable food in this neighborhood. Please bring canned food items and other non-perishables. Boxes will be available in the back of St. Charles
Diocesan Strategic Planning
As you are aware, the Diocese of Brooklyn over the last two years has been in the process of self-study to reconfigure its resources. This has included studying the pastoral and financial viability of all of its 192 parishes. We are happy to report that thanks to your prayers, hard work, and support, no reconfiguration of the parish is needed and that St. Charles will continue to serve the Brooklyn Heights community into the future. Bishop DiMarzio has asked us to provide a strategic multi-year plan to continue to have balanced budgets and to attend to the deferred maintenance that the parish buildings require.
