Food Pantry Bin Drop Off - This Weekend
Remember to drop off your Food pantry donation bin this weekend. The food pantry collection for this month is these weekend. Return your filled bin or if you prefer, just place your donations in a bag and drop them off at the Knights of Columbus trailer. Urgently needed items include: canned fruit, peanut butter, spaghetti sauce and tomato products, toilet paper, brown paper grocery bags and Ziploc sandwich bags. Also needed are coffee, crackers, macaroni and cheese, spaghetti,  oatmeal, Jell-O, large cans of soup, tuna and face soap. Thank you for your generous support of Gabriel's Gifts. Your contributions truly make a difference!
________________________________
VBS Registration - This Weekend
Vacation Bible School registration will be this weekend (April 25-26). The theme this year is Everest: Conquering Challenges with God's Mighty Power. Dates for VBS are June 15-19. Registration will be after each Mass next weekend for participants and volunteers.
________________________________
Free Breakfast - This Sunday
St Gabriel's Knights of Columbus will be offering free breakfast for all parishioners after the 8:30 am Mass this Sunday. Although not required, donations will be accepted. The  Knights will serve breakfast food and drink until supplies run out.
________________________________
First Communion Masses
86 Saint Gabriel children will be receiving their First Communion on Saturday May 9 and Sunday May 10. The number of children and their families is far too large to host at one Mass. We have decided to break up the ceremonies and have them during the 5pm Mass on Saturday, 8:30, 10:30 and 12:30 Spanish Mass on Sunday. There will be more family, friends and parishioners in attendance than usual during these Masses. Please pray for our children receiving this wonderful Sacrament.
________________________________
To All Liturgical Ministers

If you plan to attend the liturgical ministry retreat on May 2 from 9am - 2:30 pm at St Gabriel, please ensure you notify your liturgical ministry lead by April 27. Your ministry lead has more information if you need it.
