A Message from Father Nathan
My dearest people who are all close to my heart!
Lots of love, blessings, and prayers to you all.
Parish Improvement Update
Many of you came and shared with me your appreciation of the painting and other work we accomplished on the exterior of the church and adjacent buildings. I am so pleased that everyone said it looks great now! Thank you for your compliments.
Thank You for Your Financial Support
We could not have accomplished this without the support of my people. Very many supported this in ten thousand, two thousand, thousands, and fifty dollar donations….every amount helps everyone!
I felt was your support and contribution toward our church’s betterment. Thank you. May God bless all the donors. Soon, we will be taking up our surveillance camera project (CCTV). Please pray that everything will go well with this project.
Pray for Francisco our maintenance man, in his retirement
As many of you are aware our maintenance man Francisco had to leave his job due to health reasons. He was extremely good. When you ask him what we need and what has to be done, he really took care of it. He was a hard worker. I have witnessed in him, the passion for his commitment and went out of his way to take care of the church. He had gotten sick and from then on he wasn’t able to come back to work. We are saddened to hear that he needed to retire due to health reasons. Please pray for him. We are missing him.
I am looking and working on hiring someone that can take care of the cleanliness of the church and wish they would stay a long time.
Annual Thanksgiving Luncheon
On another note: we are also planning for the Annual Thanksgiving Luncheon. Please signup if you are interested to join in it. The pulpit announcement and sign-up sheets will be available soon at the back of the church. The Society of St. Vincent DePaul conference here at St. Gabriel will be coordinating and planning this blessed event.
God bless you all.
With lots of love and blessing.
Ever wanting to be faithful to your service.
—Fr. Sahayanathan Nathan

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)
