10 DAY PILGRIMAGE TO THE HOLY LAND

A pilgrimage to the Holy Land will be an experience you will never forget. Christians have been going on pilgrimages from the very beginning of our faith. The Holy Land holds importance as the place of Jesus’ birth, life, death and resurrection.

Pilgrimages include visits to Bethlehem where we stop at The Church of the Nativity that commemorates the birth of Christ. We visit sites like the village of Cana, the Sea of Galilee, Mt. Tabor, and the River Jordan, jerusalem and Dead Sea.

On our pilgrimage to the Holy Land we offer a complete itinerary that includes round-trip airfare, accommodation in first class hotels, breakfast and dinner daily, all transportation, daily Mass and all under excellent organizing, leadership and teaching from Nativity pilgrimage expert staff and Guides.

 

YOUR TRIP INCLUDES:

• Round-Trip Airfare

• All Airport Taxes & Fuel Surcharges

• First-Class Hotels

• Transfers as per Itinerary

• Breakfast and Dinner Daily

• Professional Local Catholic Guide(s)

• Sightseeing and Admission Fees as per Itinerary

• Daily Mass

• The Group Protection Plan

 

2020 ARCHBISHOP CHARITIES & DEVELOPMENT DRIVE

As we all know, we have launched the ABCD. Please come forward to make a pledge. Please support them.

May I take this wonderful chance to thank Fr. Tony for preaching for the ABCD. He was awesome. May God bless him and grant him a very long and peaceful life.

As he had mentioned, this is one of the best ways to support the diocese and all the activities of the Diocese like education of the seminarians, supporting the retired priests and reaching and teaching the most vulnerable in the society.

As we are all blessed, its good and our responsibility as well to support our blessing to our people. We will have a second collection to support the ABCD.

As Mother Theresa beautifully puts it

“GIVE TILL IT HURTS YOU”

Please remember it is not how big or small that matters but the heart to support the most vulnerable among us.

God bless your heart.

If You Need Pastoral Assistance While I Am Away

In case you need my assistance, please contact the office.  Our wonderful secretary will help you.

The Masses and other routine parish activities will continue.  There are no changes in any of the activities.  Everything is arranged.  In case you need to contact me for any emergencies, please contact me through the email saintgabrielminister@aol.com  which you will find on the front of the bulletin.

I will return in the middle of February and look forward to sharing my adventures with you.

 

Welcome Back Seasonal Parishioners

Once again welcome back to you all my people.  I am glad you are back here and I can’t wait to meet you when I return.

May you have a wonderful, safe, and peaceful time here.

God bless you all.

Please pray for me and please be assured of my prayers for you all.

 

With lots of love and ever at your service,

Fr. Sahayanthan Nathan
