Each Lent, Catholic families across the country unite to put their faith into action through prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Through CRS Rice Bowl, families learn about how our sisters and brothers across the globe overcome hardships like hunger and climate change, and how through Lenten alms, we have the power to make the world wl a better place for all.  

Rice bowls will be sent home next week.  On Fridays during Lent, students are invited to bring in coins for our Catholic Relief Services Rice Bowl Penny Challenge.  Each grade will have a jug in the cafeteria during morning carpool.  Individual rice bowls returned the week of March 30 will earn extra points towards the homeroom total.  Please label with child's name and homeroom.

The 8th grade students will lead K-8 students in the Stations of the Cross during Lent on Fridays, March 6, 13, and 27.  All sessions will begin at 2:00 p.m. in the church.  There will be no sign-outs after 1:45 pm on these days as it is disruptive to pull students from church.

Enjoy patriotic musical selections sung by our 5th graders! Performance will be in the gym on Thursday, March 26 at 7 p.m. All are welcome.

Our annual St. Gabriel Trivia Night was hosted last Saturday, February 21st. We raised over $43,000 gross from the trivia night and  $25,000 from the online auction to benefit the sports ministry, school and preschool. Thank you to all that attended and supported our cause. Pictures of the event are on our Sports Ministry Facebook page and will appear on an upcoming bulletin cover. Congratulations to "Know Stuff" - our first-place winner and to "Shrek the Musical" for their table decorating win.

We thank our 2026 St. Gabriel Trivia Night & Online Auction sponsors. With their support, we have raised $15,000 for our fundraiser. Please patronize these businesses. These owners and employees are our friends, neighbors and parish community members.

Would you like to try something different for Lent?  Fr. Jason invites the Gabriel family to pray daily and memorize Psalm 24 as a way to prepare for Easter.  In adopting this challenge, we would be "giving up" the precious gift of time and "offering up" a communal prayer of praising Christ in our lives.  If you would like to join the Gabriel Lent Challenge, here is the website link for Psalm 24: www.stgabriel.net/psalm24.
