A Message from Father Nathan

My dearest people who are close to my heart.

 

October – the month of the Rosary!

 

Of all the prayers, the Rosary is the most beautiful and the richest in grace; it is the one most pleasing to Mary, the Virgin Most Holy

“The Rosary is the glory of the Roman Church.  As an exercise of Christian piety, it takes its place among the faithful after the Mass and Sacraments”

— Pope John XXII

“The Rosary is the most excellent form of prayer and the most efficacious means of attaining eternal life. It is the remedy for all our evils, the root of all our blessings.  There is no more excellent way of praying”.

— Pope Leo XIII

“The Rosary elevated minds to the truths revealed by God and shows us Heaven opened.  The Virgin Mary Herself has insistently recommended this manner of praying.  All Graces are conceded to us by God through the hands of Mary”.

— Pope Pius XI

“Would you like me to tell you a secret?  It is simple and after all, is not secret; Pray, pray much.  Say the Rosary every day”.

— Pope John Paul II

“How beautiful is the family that recites the Rosary in the evening”.

— Pope John Paul II

We have a wonderful tradition at our parish that is right after the 8:00 a.m. Mass, we do pray the rosary.  You are all invited to join us in praying the rosary

Let us pray the rosary as a St. Gabriel community

With lots of love and ever at your service,

Fr. Sahayanthan Nathan

What we do and why do we do this?

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.
