Other News To Share
Dear St. Charles School Families,
I want to thank all of you for all of your prayers, thoughts, kindnesses, and cards the past couple of weeks following the passing of my mom. Last year I lost my father the week before Easter and this year my mom passed the week after Easter. A very fitting time of the year to be reunited with God in Heaven. My parents are now together and that brings me peace - no more suffering, no more pain.
I feel very blessed to work in a school where our faith in God is so important and it is something that we can all share.
God Bless each and every one of you -
Thank you,
Mrs. Binger
