Thousands of children around the world grow up without a family to call their own. The SCB Fountain of Youth ministers to some of these children each summer on their Mexico Mission Trip. We invite you to help share that mission with us and bring Christmas to one of these children. Please select an ornament and place cash or check payable to SCB FOY in the attached envelope and place in the collection basket at Mass by Sunday, December 22, 2019. Please keep the ornament with the child’s picture to hang on your tree to remind you to pray for him/her every day. We will then shop for each orphan, take them shopping, and have a Christmas Celebration at each orphanage. Imagine the smiles on the faces and the twinkle in the eyes of these beautiful children as they celebrate Jesus’ birth. Thanks for believing in the youth and young adults of St. Charles Borromeo Parish and for helping us to bring Christmas to God’s children in another part of the world.
ARE YOU OR A FAMILY MEMBER BEING ADMITTED INTO THE HOSPITAL? If you or anyone in your family is being admitted into the hospital for surgery or a procedure, please notify the Parish Office at (985) 764-6383. Fr. Mixie or Fr.

Fulfill a senior's wish and purchase a needed item for those in our local nursing home. We have obtained the names of 100+ residents at the Ormond Nursing Home. Their wish will be placed on an ornament on our "Giving Tree" which will be located at the back of the church. Please return the wrapped gift with the ornament taped on the package to the church office or church no later than December 8th. Please do not bring packages to the nursing home or take an ornament if you cannot meet the deadline.
If you would like to assist with the decorating of our church throughout the year, please contact Janell Weber at 504-416-3950 or janellmweber@gmail.com. We work around the Mass Schedule and other events held in Church. Please consider joining to help show our reverence to Our Lord Jesus Christ.
