A Message from Father Nathan

My dearest people who are close to my heart!

Prayerful greetings to you.

2020 ARCHBISHOP CHARITIES & DEVELOPMENT DRIVE

 

As we know this week we are going to launch the ABCD.  The target or goal for our parish is $191,366.

I would like to thank Father Tony for preaching on this. 

I was extremely glad to hear our people have been very generous in the past.  May I request you to pray that we all could continue in that same spirit.  Best wishes to all.

Please be generous.

I Will be visiting family in India

As you probably know this Sunday after Mass, I am flying back home for my holidays. 

Please pray for my safe travels. It’s going to be a very long trip.  People are anxiously waiting for me. 

I am also longing to be there.  Lots of commitments and travel.  I believe the Lord will hold me and guide me.  I will try to connect with you in whatever way I can.

As I go for holidays, I wish you good health.  Please be safe and healthy. 

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.  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
