A Message from Father Nathan
My dearest people who are close to my heart.
Prayerful greeting to you. I am indeed happy to tell you that I was extremely pleased last Sunday just before the Mass because we had a good turnout for the Sacrament of Confession.
I do remember the wisdom and challenge of my liturgy professor who said, “I would judge your spirituality, guys, by the way people come for Mass and the number who avail themselves of the Sacrament of Confession. So, I was glad to see you, my dear people, making great use of confession. God bless you. Please keep up the good work.
WELCOME BACK to the parish, my dear people who are all back from your summer escape. I am delighted to have you back. I can see the church I filling up. Great! God bless you all.
As I told you I do receive a lot of positve comments. I do take them all with a sense of responsibility. Thank you though.
Please let me know whether I can do anything for you to serve you better. Your constructive suggestions and comments for the good of the church are always appreciated and welcomed. Please stop at the office, if you want to talk to me or send me an e-mail at saintgabrielminister@aol.com which is another way to connect. I am open to it. I am here to SERVE you.
As always, I appeciate it. We have greatness and holiness here at our church. Let us increase these qualities and make this parish where we can all come together, worship together and grow in relation with each other and with God. God bless you all
Blessings!
Please be assured of my prayers for each and every one of you. You are rememberred and prayed for in my personal prayers and at the altar
With lots of love and ever at your service,
Fr. Sahayanthan Nathan

At the Easter Vigil, the Exsultet is sung as Mass begins in darkness, illumined only by candles throughout the church. The Exsultet is a beautiful hymn of rejoicing in Christ’s triumph of sin and death.

Holy Week is also called “Passion Week” begins on Palm Sunday and continues to Easter Sunday. Holy Week provided an opportunity for all the faithful to reflect on their personal sinfulness and their need for Christ and His sacrifice on our behalf.

What is Holy Mass?
What we do and why do we do this?
Vatican II, bulletin 1324 said the following: – The Eucharist is “the source and summit of the Christian life.” 136 ‘the other sacraments and indeed all ecclesiastical ministries and works of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented towards it.

What is the Sacrament of Confession? Why do we need confession? What are the benefits of going to confession? The Sacrament of Confession is one of the most unique and beautiful aspects of Catholicism. Jesus Christ, in His abundant love and mercy, established the Sacrament of Confession so that we as sinners can obtain forgiveness for our sins and reconcile with God, our neighbors, and the Church.
