A Message from Father Nathan

My dearest people who are close to my heart.

Hurricane Dorian

The Lord will always take great care of us.  We have witnessed that during the last week.  We were so petrified and alarmed with the recent hurricane.  But God had saved us.  Praise God.

We feel extremely bad about those people who were affected by it.  It looks terrible.  May God bring them back to normalcy through caring and loving people.  Looks like it is working great.

St. Gabriel Church Maintenance Mission

As far as St. Gabriel, our local church, our maintenance man has done a wonderful job last week.  He made sure that the church, hall and rectory were all well secured.  God bless Jimmy our maintenance man.

Having said this, our people, Karen Kelly, Regina Cohane, Anthony Brogna, Patricia Halloran, Maryann Kelly, Joy Kelly, are doing a fantastic job cleaning the church and making it a welcoming home for our people.  They are commited to working every week.  May God bless them all.

Volunteer Opportunity

Additional Help Needed

They are also looking for more supporting hands; hence, if you are interested in joining the mission, please contact Ms. Karen Kelly – 845-325-1028.  May God bless them.

Meeting of Priests from the Archdioces of Miami

This week from Tuesday to Thursday, the Archdioces of Miami, is having meetings for all the priests.  At these meetings some of the issues pertaining to the church will be discussed and refreshed.

I love it for the simple reason, that the priests of the whole diocese come together.  I like that togetherness and at the same time, we learn something new as well.  Please pray for the Archbishop as well as the priests in our diocese.

Upcoming Parish Meetings

This week we will have our finance council meeting.  We have our parish council meeting next week as well.  Please pray that we could plan for the good of our parish and as well as for our community

God bless you all.

Please be assure of my prayers for you all.  Every day you are all remembered and prayed for during the Mass as welll as in my personal morning and evening prayers.  Please allow me to enjoy this greatest responsibility.

With lots of love and ever at your service,

Fr. Sahayanthan Nathan
