Archdiocese of Philadelphia Office of the Archbishop 222 North 17th Street Philadelphia, PA 19103-1299 June 13,2017 Reverend Monsignor George A. Majoros Pastor Parish and Saint Charles Borromeo Parish 3422 Dennison Road Drexel Hill P A 19026 Dear Monsignor Majoros, I write in response to the Partnership Plan for Saint Charles Borromeo Parish and Parish. The plan that you and the other members of the Parish Growth and Formation Committee have put together is very encouraging. Your focus on the twin priorities of Evangelical outreach and Christian life and family ministry is well placed. With so many things going on at a parish, these central elements of the parish's mission can sometimes be overshadowed. The goals you have set and the actions you have planned to implement them are at the same time both farsighted and very practical. I thank you and your parishioners at Parish and Saint Charles Borromeo Parish for working together so well in looking toward your future as partnered parishes. May God continue to bless the good work you have begun. Sincerely in Christ, Most Reverend Charles.J. Chaput, OFM, Cap.
