Program Canceled

May 1st, 2009

We are sorry to announce Catholics Returning Home has been canceled for this year due to a lack of attendance.

If you or anyone you know has been away from the church and needs support in their journey back, please contact the parish or office 291-7014 or e-mail Chris Young at webmaster@stgabrielindy.org and we will contact you when the program will return for its next sessions. The program will definitely return shortly after Easter next year but if we could find people who wanted to attend, we would certainly reschedule the program sooner as needed.

We all know friends, family, coworkers who are former Catholics or inactive Catholics. Please talk to them about what a great place St. Gabriel is and encourage them to check us out.

A new slideshow of photos and some YouTube videos have been added to our Photo and Video Galleries. Check out the slideshow of images from our Youth Ministry Christmas party which included lots of food, fun, games, fellowship. Click here to check it out.

Also on the last day of school before Christmas vacation that students and staff of St. Gabriel School had a surprise at the Friday morning Mass for Father Larry. They turned it into a pastor appreciation Mass. When he turned around to face them after the opening prayer they had all donned masks of his face as he has looked throughout the years.  They also presented him with other gifts and tributes. You can see it all in a four-part YouTube video. Click here to check it out.

Also don’t forget our weekly video blog reflection on the Sunday Scriptures available at GoodNewsOnTap.com is updated every week. And click on the Photo and Video button on the left any time to see other slideshows and videos.

Christian Unity Week Jan 18-25

January 15th, 2009

            During the week of January 18 -25 we are celebrating the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity.  This occasion is celebrated by many denominations of Christian churches throughout the world.  The task for us as people of different churches and traditions is to come together to pray for unity as Jesus prayed that his disciples might be one.  We must come face to face with the challenges we share and celebrate the commonality of our mission to be the Body of Christ on earth. This year’s theme is “Reconcile Your People”.

 

            In the United States this week we mark three significant events: the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., our Presidential Inauguration Day, and the 35th Anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion.  All of these days illustrate this years Christian Unity theme of reconciliation. 

 

            We are distributing a series of daily reflections and prayers which challenge us to come “face to face” with themes and situations in our world where reconciliation is needed and that cry out for a united response by people of all faiths. The prayer will be distributed at Mass or you can download your own copy in PDF format and print one for yourself or forward them to friends and family. Click here to download.

GoodNewsOnTap.com Premieres

November 30th, 2008

Today St. Gabriel is launching a new feature on the website—“Good News on Tap.” It is a weekly video reflection on the Sunday scripture readings.  The two to four minute video commentaries will reflect on the meaning of the scripture and offer practical suggestions of ways to incorporate the gospel into daily life.  It is meant to provide a brief positive message of hope for people of all faiths.  Please invite your friends and family to check it out at www.GoodNewsOnTap.com or parish website www.StGabrielIndy.org. If you would like to help create these videos by writing and/or reading a reflection on the Sunday scripture contact Chris Young at webmaster@stgabrielindy.org.

Election Novena

October 6th, 2008

An Election Novena will be prayed at all Masses at St. Gabriel October 26th through November 3rd. prior to the election on November 4th. The novena is based on the U.S. Bishops’ reflection, “Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship” (www.faithfulccitizenship.org) which addresses the themes of Catholic social teaching and lay participation in political life without endorsing political parties or candidates. Copies of the novena for home use will be available in the bulletin October 26.

If you would like to use this prayer prior to then, click here for a web version or click here for a printable PDF version. It is deliberately not copyrighted. You are invited to use it as you see fit and share it wherever you like. In addition to the novena itself, you will also find many useful resource links related to faithful citizenship and the teachings of the church on social justice issues.

Respect Life Sunday 2008

October 5th, 2008

This Sunday, October 5 was, in all Catholic churches in the United States, Respect Life Sunday. On this day we pause and reconsider and we pray about the reality of what we refer to as the Consistent Ethic of Life. Very simply it says that all human life from conception to natural death is a reflection of the Divine Life of God and therefore is to be respected as such.

Click here for a message from Father Larry on Respect Life Sunday. Look for other social justice resources including an “Election Novena” which we will be praying before mass each day leading up to the November 4 elections.
