Dear Parishioners and Friends -
Happy Friday! We are coming ever closer to the end of Lent! With this Sunday being the last Lenten Sunday before Holy Week, we definitely have good things coming. Next weekend, for Palm Sunday, join us at 10:00 Mass for a Palm Sunday procession with live donkeys!
But first is this weekend, with much excitement of it's own! Tomorrow is the Remember and Rejoice service for organ donors and recipients, so come join us at 12:30 in the Church for a service to honor this great gift. On Sunday, we have Servant Sunday at 10:00 Mass for our middle school students in grades 7&8!
Yours,
- Victor and the St. Gabriel Staff

This Tuesday is our Lenten Reconciliation Night, and Friday, we again have Stations of the Cross at 6:00.
TOMORROW is Remember & Rejoice! Anyone can join us as we honor all those who have made the great gift of organ donation, as well as celebrating those who have received organs. Click below to RSVP. Unable to make it that day? We will also be livestreaming on the St. Gabriel YouTube page, so you can join us virtually!
TONIGHT is the next St. Gabriel Fish Fry. Join us for your favorite meals from years past plus desserts, bingo at 7pm, and great fellowship!
New this year, we invited St. Gabriel students to take part in our Fish Fry Logo Contest! We'd like to thank all the kids that submitted unique and thoughtful drawings. DRUMROLL PLEASE... the winner is 4th grader, Itzel! You will find her logo on our menu and volunteer T-shirts this year. We've ordered a few extra T-shirts, too (first come first serve) so purchase yours tonight!
Lastly, we cannot do this without the help of many amazing volunteers. Thank you to those who have already committed their time and talents. Help is still needed, even for tonight, so please sign up if you are able, by clicking on the image below.

Conversations with Sara and Father Bob
I never found a personal relationship with Jesus in the Catholic Church. But, the Church exists solely to help people encounter Jesus Christ. Maybe we just need to get better at explaining why and how instead of do's and don'ts?
