A Message from Father Nathan
My dearest people who are close to my heart!
Psalm 50:15 so beautifully says the following
“Call upon Me in the day of trouble, I will deliver you”.
There are times in my life I used to think of myself as so small and so little especially when I see beautiful nature like an ocean, sky and mountains, litle flowers…all of this nature puzzles me.
How they are created, how they sound, and how they showcase…everything used to bamboozle and puzzle me.
I used to think of myself as so small before these other creations of God.
Even in the same way, when I witnessed a wonderful human being. I admire the creation of God. Likewise, in life we find ourselves so feeling small, little in a given circumstance and situation. In a way, this should help us to humble ourselves and able to know limitedness of ourselves. This would and should lead us to God who is the ultimate.
Having said this, we have no clue and how and where and why this coronavirus entered the globe and panicking the world. We pray that throught our medical professionals and advancements, some remedy would be out soon to safeguard the human race.
Everyone is panicked because of the pandemics virus. It pains me o witness the world shattered due to this virus. It’s really bad.
As we are in the season of Lent, I am forced to look at his way. We are in a way, all the time concerned and worried about very many things of the world, which may not be really bad at all.
Now in this given situation, personally, my take is, it’s a time to bestow to us that we can focus on His passion, His suffering and death of Christ for our life.
Lots of phone calls and emails with regard to these issues.
Let us all pray that God will deliver His people by His gracious love and protection. My humble prayers for you all.
Please be assured of my prayers.
With lots of love and blessing.
Ever at your service.
—Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

The Gift of Time and Prayer.
If the secular world cannot come to Christ in prayer, why don’t we bring them to Christ through our prayers? They are weary and burdened, and they, too, need to find rest in Christ Jesus. Prayer honors God. It acknowledges His presence and His greatness. It exalts His power, trusts in His providence, seeks His help, and, above all, makes us humble.

The Eucharist: The Center of Our Lives. My dearest people, closest to my heart,
As a second and third grader, I would sometimes go to church at 3:00 a.m. and sleep on the church steps until it was time to open the doors. That was simply part of my routine. I wanted to be an altar server…

I will be away for a weekend, as I am traveling to India. My home parish, dedicated to St. Anthony of Padua, is celebrating its 50th anniversary. It is a small community with about 350 families in total. Many have moved outside the village for their livelihood, but the faith of this parish has deeply shaped who I am today.






Father Nathan
I was a Eucharistic minister for many years at St. Elizabeth of Hungary. I have been at St. Gabriel’s for a number of years but have not been a part of the ministry as I have been busy. At St. Elizabeth’s I visited North Broward hospital taking communion once a week. I also visited the sick. Often I visited the sickest of the sick. Carrying the Eucharist to patients often terminally ill. I don’t know if there is a need but with the current crisis people are scared. If there is a need for ministers outside of the mass I am available on weekends. I am A middle school teacher in palm beach county. I have references Father Gabriel Vogues in South Beach will vouch for me.
Thank you so much for your offer. Contact Father Nathan directly at 954.943.3684, to discuss.
God Bless you for your willingness to serve.
