A Message from Father Nathan
Lent has begun – An invitation to dive deeper into our spiritual life
Let us make use of this season for the purification of our relationship with Jesus
As we have started the holy Lenten season, let us make use of this season for purification of our relationship with Jesus, to go into a deeper understanding of His love, to make reparations for our sins, and above all, to relish His love.
Stations of the Cross are prayed every Friday at 4:00 p.m.
And, as usual, we will have Stations of the Cross prayed every Friday at 4:00 p.m. I would encourage all of us to participate in this liturgy and walk along with Him.
This is one of the beautiful ways to walk along with Jesus to Calvary, to understand and appreciate His sacrifice on the cross for our salvation, and above all to spend some time with Him; hence, I would encourage all to participate in the Stations of the Cross.
ABCD – We are still behind our goal. Prayerfully consider your pledge.
I am reminding you of ABCD. Still have yet to reach our target. We can easily reach this goal only by the generous involvement of the numerous families or all of your involvement; hence, please pledge to the ABCD.
St. Gabriel celebrates its Golden Jubilee—60th anniversary of the establishment of our parish.

Hence, Tuesday, March 224th (2026) kiskstarts the Jubilee with the solemn Mass of the bishop. We have already discussed it with the parish council; details will follow soon.

Archbishop’s Letter
My dear Brothers and Sisters,
Life can be noisy and, at times, overwhelming. Yet in the quiet moments of prayer, a still, gentle voice speaks to us—a deep conviction that stirs within and calls us to look beyond ourselves. Each day, we’re surrounded by the clamor of the world—its demands, its distractions, its pressures—but even in the midst of it all, God calls us to pause, to listen, and to respond to the quiet prompting within us: to see and serve the needs of others.
Let us come together to bring light where there is darkness, peace where there is conflict, and love where there is need. There is great strength in unity—and when we are united in Christ, we become a powerful force for good in a world longing for hope and healing.
Together, we must do good and seek peace. Together starts with you.
By giving to the Archbishop’s Charities and Development Drive, the ABCD, you bring hope to those in greatest need. This is our Church, our mission—to serve with heart and compassion.
The ABCD lives out this mission every day: feeding the hungry, consoling the suffering, embracing the stranger, advocating for justice, and upholding the dignity of the poor with love. The work of our Church in South Florida, through the ABCD, is not merely charitable—it is profoundly sacramental, a visible expression of Christ’s love in the world.
As Pope Leo XIV said, “United hand in hand with God… let us go forward. The world needs His light.” Let us seek peace, do good,
and stand in the light of Christ.
Now is the time to come together. Your gift to the ABCD supports a mission that reflects the very heart of the Gospel.
Thank you for uniting with me to be One in Faith, One in Hope, and One in Charity. Your faith and generosity bring the Gospel to life. May God bless you and keep you in His peace.
With hope and gratitude,
Most Rev. Thomas G. Wenski
Archbishop Of Miami

Happy New Year. Goodbye, 2020. Hello, 2021. We have all experienced a most unusual year. Our lives have had to adjust to never-ending uncertainties that shake our personal and public lives. We have witnessed a shutdown in our thoughts and actions all over the world…

Merry Christmas to You! “JOY TO THE WORLD” Fourth Advent of Sunday. In this season…when the people were all tired, worried, concerned, and waiting with lots of perplexities, the Lord incarnated Himself and opened up a new world of love to His people.

Peace and happiness are like a light within each of our hearts. I believe and trust that It’s ONE of the gifts from God. It’s purely a gift from the Holy Spirit. It is light – that always glows and intensifies.

On November 2nd we are going to celebrate All Souls Day. This is a holy day set aside for honoring the dead. The day is primarily celebrated in the Catholic Church, but it is also celebrated in the Eastern Orthodox Church as well as a few other denominations of Christianity.

Every week as we profess our faith, we express… “I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic
Church and THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS.” The author of this letter to the Hebrews wrote. “Therefore since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us rid ourselves of every burden and sin that clings to us and persevere in running the race that lies before us while keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the leader and the perfecter of faith.” (12.1-2)
