Second Collection This Weekend
A humanitarian catastrophe is unfolding in Ukraine as attacks of war put millions of lives at risk. Innocent families, women, girls, and the elderly will suffer most.  In our Diocese we have a unique opportunity to help refugees in Poland.  Our Diocese is working directly with the Diocese of Tarnow, Poland. The Diocese of Tarnow has requested that the parish halls in each of their parishes be turned into shelters to house refugees. We are confident that 100% of our collections will go to directly help the refugees who are being helped by the Catholic parishes in Tarnow. We will be taking a special second collection on March 19 and 20 to go directly to help Ukrainian Refugees in Poland.  We are grateful for your generosity.

Easter Baskets for Foster Kids
Thank you to everyone who took a tag this week to provide a full Easter basket or items to go towards an Easter Basket for the foster kids sponsored by the Fostering Hope program.  Please return your donations to the Easter tree along with the tag.  Request you return the items the weekend of April 2-3, but we must have the items by April 10 so we can distribute them to the families in time for Easter. We are also asking for donations of extra Easter baskets you may have in your homes and no longer need.  Just place them under the Easter Tree. We are also accepting monetary donations to help purchase additional items.  If you would like to donate, there are envelopes at the welcome desk and you can place the envelope with the donation in the white mailbox to the left of the office door.  You can also donate online on the Saint Gabriel website or go to https://giving.parishsoft.com/app/giving/stg8755101 and choose the Fostering Hope fund.
