A Message from Father Nathan
My dearest people closest to my heart!
God bless you and your generous heart
ABCD Campaign Kick-off
In January – it will be all about the ABCD Campaign. No doubt our beloved Archbishop and his team have been working tirelessly to set out the program and they want all of us to achieve the goal. It has been arranged to have the priests preach about and for ABCD.
May I ask all of you to prayerfully consider your pledge toward achieving St. Gabriel’s goal? Many parishes do over and above their target. When we do above the target, the extra comes back to the parish, and if we DO NOT achieve the targeted goal, the money will eventually be taken from the parish account.
What this means is that we are called to reach our target.
Hence may I request you to come forward to achieve our target? As you are very well aware, the money goes to the education of the seminarians for their formation, to the catechism of the children, helping the poor, assisting the retired religious, and reaching out to the suffering around the world just to name a few of the programs.
I May Be in India but I’m very connected to the Parish Via Facebook
While I am away I will be, according to the convenience of the internet in India, in touch with you on Facebook with what is happening here at St. Gabriel’s. I am sure that my visit is going to be hectic, but I believe, I need time with my family, after the holidays here. I have made arrangements for all the Masses and Sacraments in my absence. Everything should go smoothly with your help. If there is anything so urgent or an emergency please call the office, and you will be helped.
With lots of love and blessings,
Ever wanting to be faithful to your service,
— Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

Holy Days of Obligation | The Catechism of the Catholic Church
The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains holy days of obligation this way:
Family needs or important social services can legitimately excuse the obligation of Sunday rest (specified in the Fourth Commandment). The faithful should see that legitimate excuses do not lead to habits prejudicial to religion, family life, and health {CCC 2185}.
