A Special Message from Father Nathan
My dearest people who are all close to my heart!
Lots of love and prayers to you all.
I stand before you and thank you from the very bottom of my heart for all that you have been to me and to my family.
Thank you for your kindness, love, support, and above all your valuable prayers. To me, as like all of you, family means a lot to me.
We are united ONLY WITH LOVE. I always feel the LOVE VIBRATION in my family. I feel so BLESSED about my family as I feel with you all.
Your love and support was greatly appreciated. Everyday morning and evening, we prayed the rosary and celebrated the mass that helped us for our healing. In a way, it was and is a witness to the community as well.
The whole family sends their love and gratitude to all of you. Each and every one of my members were taken aback by your support and your love. It meant an immense amount to us in these most difficult times. Thank you again.
I am Back at St. Gabriel and Quaratining to Keep Our Parish Family Safe
My dearest family, the ONLY reason I came back right away to the parish squeezing away my so-called holidays is for the launching of this ABCD. I came back and was quarantining and went for the COVID test which turned to negative. But, out of love and concern for all of you, I will still remain a few more days of quarantine and bounce back to normality. Thank you for your understanding.
We are the church.
One in Faith, One in Hope and One in Charity.
Friends, as we know we are all going through an extremely very difficult time. All of us have our own concerns and anxieties and concerns about the future and about our own lives. We are the Church finding new ways to uphold our faith in action. Together, we are the Church: a universal body of believers delivering to all peoples everywhere a faith-filled message of hope and love.
Your commitment to the Archbishop’s Charities and Development Drive, the ABCD, helps the universal Church, in your name, to serve so many in our communities. The ABCD brings hope to the hopeless, strengthens the faith of the discouraged, and provides charity to those most in need.
We are the Church. Together, as Disciples in Faith and Missionaries of Hope, the Love of Christ urges us on no matter what challenges may come our way.
One in Faith, One in Hope and One in Charity.
When our faith is tried by the inevitable disappointments and tragedies that this life brings, we must remember that the Lord is faithful to His promises. If the Lord takes us to it, He will bring us through it.
May I request all of you to prayerfully consider supporting the ABCD? Your support, no matter how small and big they are, it’s going to make a huge difference in the life of others.
So let us actively be involved in our faith and prayers.
God bless you all.
With love and blessings,
Ever at 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)

The Elections are quickly approaching. Our people have such a love for our nation – which is good. Let us love our nation. I have no other thought than
to say just this: “How blessed we are all, to live such a blessed country. God Bless America!
