Saint Gabriel the Archangel Parish News
September 30, 2016

________________________________
Visiting Priest
Fr. Larry Bernard from the Franciscan Missions in New Mexico and Arizona will be with us celebrating all Masses the weekend of October 1 and 2. For over 100 years the Franciscans have ministered in the Southwest US to the Navajo Indians, Pueblos
Indians and Hispanics. The friars seek to respect, preserve and integrate into our Catholic faith the beautiful customs and crafts of the three cultures. Most
of missions are small and very poor. Your offering will support their ministries.
________________________________
Dinner with Bishop and Father Kirk
In case you missed it at the silent auction, we have about 25 slots left to fill for the Dinner with the Bishop and Fr. Kirk. It's going to be held on Thursday, Oct. 13. 2016 at El Padrino's Mexicana Restaurant. We will begin with a cocktail hour and appetizers starting at 6:00 p.m. followed by dinner. The cost is only $35/person includes a fountain drink or tea, does not include alcoholic drink or gratuity.
The restaurant provides the food as a way to give back, so 100% of the $35 charge comes right back to St. Gabriel's. We would love to have a great turn-out. Please call Judy Gamble 719-338-1152 for more detail or go by the office to signup and pay.
________________________________
Blessing of the Animals
Join Deacon Mike for a Blessing of the Animals at 9:00am on Saturday, October 8. We'll gather our creatures, great and small, in front of the church for a special blessing, in honor of St. Francis of Assisi, whose feast is Oct. 4. All animals are welcome!
