Our Class Saint

St. Charles Borromeo

Charles was a kind and caring man who loved God very much and spent his life helping others. He worked hard to make churches and schools better so that everyone could learn about their faith and grow closer to God. St. Charles was very brave, especially during times of sickness and trouble, and he never gave up on helping the poor and the sick. People admired his kindness and courage, and they followed his example of love and service.

                     His feast day is celebrated on November 4th, a special day when we remember all the good things he did                                        and thank God for his life.
