The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much. 17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. 18Then he prayed again, and the sky poured rain and the earth produced its fruit.1718 St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church 1927 RR 1431 Kingsland, TX 78639 Office Phone/FAX: 325-388-3742 Lee Hall: 325-388-0397 Website: stcharleskingslandtx.com E-mail: stcharles@nctv.com Mission: OUR LADY OF THE LAKE 120 RR 2233 Sunrise Beach, TX 78643 Today’s Gospel reflection from Fr.

The Offertory is more than the “collection of money.” Our offerings represent ourselves and our dedication to God. God loves a cheerful and generous giver. We have freely received an abundance of his blessings; let us freely and humbly return thanks to him by giving of our material gifts. We give back to the Lord only what He has first given us – we come into this world with nothing; we shall leave with nothing. Freely we have received of the Lord’s blessings; let us graciously return to him the first and the best that we have. WHAT IF… We woke up this morning with only the things we thanked God for yesterday… The rosary will be prayed every Sunday at 8:30 a.m. Please join us each Sunday for this special prayer before the Mass. St. Charles Altar Flowers this weekend Each week at Mass, after the homily, our Cantor will lead us in singing “Let the Children come to me”. At this time please send your children ages 3 to 12 to the altar where they can pick up their Bulletin. The bulletin contains a game or puzzle that corresponds with the day’s Gospel. There is also a ‘secret code’ to use when they get home for more games. GREAT QUALITY FAMILY TIME….
