Hey Briarfest fans, it's time to vote for The Best of The Springs 2019. We need your help as this is a grass roots effort to raise awareness of our festival up in Briargate. When lots of people know about our festival the more we can bring in great entertainment for the weekend for the family. Click on Arts & Entertainment and it's under Local Festivals. It's that simple. One vote per e-mail address. https://www.thebestofthesprings.com/voting-home<https://www.thebestofthesprings.com/voting-home?fbclid=IwAR0GE6sKtMErH4ZV2z0Zo1CZCuWp9Ej9yTP6x6YwI25Scvb30f0xpEr8ZZ4>

Scam Alert

It has come to our attention that there are several email and mail scams going around to our church community.  Recently several parishioners have received an email from Fr. Kirk requesting assistance in some way (either by money, I Tunes cards etc).  These are scams and we are urging you to delete the email immediately and do not respond to it or open any links in the message.

Please be aware that Fr. Kirk will NEVER contact you via email asking for assistance.  If you should receive an email from any staff member of St. Gabriel, please make sure to check the ENTIRE email address.  We will ALWAYS use the saintgabriel.net email address and it will have our church logo at the end of the message.  An additional way to determine if the email is from Fr. Kirk is that he will sign +JMJ+ after his name.

Checking email addresses and NOT responding to pleas is a good practice to exercise when reading emails from any source.

If you should have any questions, please call the office at 719-528-8407.
