St. Charles wants to communicate more effectively with you, and make it easy for you to control what types of announcements you get and how you are notified when we make them.
NEW to St. Charles is a totally FREE service that will strengthen the communication within the various groups of the Church. Flocknotes will make it easy for you to stay informed of all the ministries and programs that you care about, all by text message or email updates.
Your information will be completely safe and secure. You can unsuscribe from any updates at any time! More details below!
Need more information about Flocknote?
- Please consider visiting the Flocknote website
What are the different groups that St. Charles can send messages to?
- Currently we can direct our communication (text or email) to the following groups:
* All Parish Members
* Parish Council
* Faith Formation Parents (Three Groups: Grade School, Jr. High, and High School)
* Parish Society Members
* Knights of Columbus
* Daily Mass
New groups can be added as the need arises, or as additional ministries within the church are formed.
How often does St. Charles plan to communicate using Flocknote?
- We know that your time is valuable, and this includes the time to read texts and email messages. It is anticipated this service will be used to communicate weather-related announcements, special events at the church, needs for specific projects, or other time-sensitive church happenings.
Having designated groups will cut down on the number of messages being sent to "all parish members using Flocknote". (i.e. faith formation material will only be sent to one of the three specific faith formation groups, and needs for a funeral fellowship meal will only be sent to the Altar Society group.)
How do I sign up with these various groups, as mentioned above?
- The sign-up form on this page is all you need to do. Just enter in your contact information and if you have a child enrolled in Faith Formation classes or are a member of the other groups mentioned, we can assign your name into one of (or a number of) those specific groups. It is important to remember that you can unsuscribe from this communication service at any time.
Most importantly, the leadership at St. Charles views this as a great opportunity to stay informed of all the wonderful happenings and to further fulfill the mission of the Church. We also hope that Flocknote will simplify communications and increase engagement here at our Parish. If you have difficulty signing up or have additional questions, please speak with Fr. Tim or reach out to Curt Halmrast or Martha Iverson. All of us would be happy to help!
We sincerely thank you for participating!
