Gratitude Expressed:
 “Dear Parishioners of St. Charles Borromeo Parish,
     On behalf of the clients and staff of Assisi Bridge House, I want to personally thank you all for selecting Assisi Bridge House for your Lenten project. It was an honor and a blessing to receive the supplies donated to us. These supplies are used on a regular basis by men who are working to make important changes in their lives.
     Addiction is a cunning, powerful and baffling disease, but it is treatable. It requires hard work and a willingness to make changes. At Assisi Bridge House, we offer long-term residential treatment to assist men in building a foundation for their futures. It takes time to start their new lives in recovery. Our program offers 4 to 6 months of structured treatment, including a full schedule of group and individual counseling sessions, 12 step meetings, exercise, step work, individualized treatment plans, service work, optional sober living aftercare and more to set the foundation for a balanced lifestyle. We also offer family sessions for those who want to support their loved ones who are in treatment with us.
     Assisi Bridge House, one of the many programs of Catholic Charities, exists to serve the men in our community and the surrounding area and their families.  If you need our services for anyone in your life, please call us at 985-872-5529 or email us at abh@htdiocese.org and we will be glad to be of help. Thanks to each and every one of you for touching the lives of the clients of Assisi Bridge House. God bless you all and please keep Assisi Bridge House clients and staff in your prayers.”
                                                                          Signed - Sincerely, Monique V. Albarado, LPC
                                                                          Director of Assisi Bridge House, Schriever, La.

                                                     FIRST COMMUNION
“Congratulations to our 10 Communicants on making their First Communion on Sunday, April 25th.  What a grace time this was.  Receiving Jesus in Holy Communion is a special moment, because you will never be alone. Jesus loves us so much that he made a way to be with us always.  You can see Him and receive Him in church every Sunday where he is present in the Holy Eucharist. The Eucharist is the heart of our lives.  May your light shine for Jesus!!!"
‘From the Eucharist comes strength to live the Christian life and zeal to share that life with others.’ (Pope John Paul II)                                                                       
                                                                                                        God Bless,   Lisa Whitman
