3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time

“He called them, and immediately they left their boat and their father and followed Him.” (Matthew 4:22)

Just as Jesus called the first apostles, He calls each of us to

follow Him, too. Not everyone is called to leave their business

or family behind, but we are expected to put God first in eve-

rything. Everything from our time in daily prayer, our talent

in participating in one of our parish ministries, and our treas-

ure to support the financial needs of our parish mission.

The Altar Flowers were donated

by Mr. Ralph Gaspard

In Loving Memory of

Mrs. Linda Gaspard

Homeless Ministry

The Homeless Ministry is still accepting the following

items to assist the homeless: Throw Blankets | Knit

Deodorant | Waterless Shampoo | Hand Sanitizer and

Disposable Wipes. Please place all donations in the

boxes under the table by the Baptismal Pool.

One Thing To Do For The Environment:

Save Plastic Lids From All Your Containers

Did You Know?

Plastic lids from all the plastic containers are not able to

ne recycled in the same way plastic bottles and contain-

ers are recycled.

They end up in a landfill.

The Sisters of Notre Dame are collecting Just Plastic

Lids to be made into park benches and more. Check the

website www.greentreeplastics.com for more infor-

mation. Containers for your plastic lids are under the ta-

bles at the entrances of the church.

We are running the

“Preserving Our Lega-

cy Campaign” for a

limited time. Your

name or the name of a

loved one will be deep-

ly engraved into a brick

and permanently be dis-

played as pavers around

our Parish Sign. The

bricks are $110.00 each and measure 4”x8”. Any symbol

is considered one space (period, comma or dash) 21 char-

acters per line, 18 recommended. Brick Forms are availa-

ble in the back of church. Return all forms to the Parish

Office.

Second Collection

The second collection this weekend

is for the Archdiocesan Catholic

Schools. This collection supports the

Champions of Catholic Education

Fund, which is dedicated to helping

more families afford the cost of Catholic education. Please

be as generous as possible in your giving.

If you are in need of a statement of

your 2019 contributions to St. Gabriel

Church for tax purposes, submit your

request to the Parish Office using the

form at the entrances to the church.

Please fill-out the form completely and

drop it in the collection basket or bring

ied from our parish on Friday,

January 24, 2020.

Mr. Anthony Jackson, who will be buried from our Par-

ish on Monday, January 27, 2020 at 11:00am.

The CYO/PSR Annual Black History Month Portrayals

For Black History Month 2020, we will honor the lives of

our very own St. Gabriel elders, who have been trailblazers

in their own right. Each Sunday in the month of February,

one elder will be recognized during the 10:30am mass. Pre-

pare to be enlightened and moved.

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Day 2020 was a day ON and

NOT OFF for St. Gabriel's CYO. Several members helped

to beautify the Lafitte Greenway, along with over 100 volun-

teers from around the city. Thanks to Miguel, Kayla, and

Bryan for representing St. Gabriel and making the city of

New Orleans cleaner place.
