As you know, Fr. Charlie announced he will be away for a couple of weeks working on some health issues. This is not a sabbatical, but an official medical leave that he asked for and has been granted by Bishop Duca.

He will be at a professional facility the Diocese uses for full physical and emotional assessments. This process will take place over the next few weeks. The bishop will make sure St. Gabriel Church will be taken care of by clergy within the Diocese during this time. Please be patient and keep Fr. Charlie in your prayers.

Please do not try to contact Fr. Charlie, as he will need privacy to fully apply himself to this assessment.

If you wish to send a card or note, please send it to the parish office – marked personal, the diocese will make sure it gets it.
