The Gabriel Project is a one on one mentoring service
to women of our community experiencing a crisis pregnancy. She
is placed with a trained parish member, an ANGEL, to assist her through out
the pregnancy and after the baby is born until she is strong enough to stand
on her own.
We, the members of St. Catherine Catholic Church, see in the birth of each
baby, a fresh expression of God’s unfailing love. For the love of God and
each and every one of His children, we offer practical help to any woman
faced with a crisis pregnancy. We have a special concern for you and your
unborn child. We await your call.
SPIRITUAL
ADOPTION
The time is growing near to
when the babies we've prayed for in our Spiritual Adoption will be born. How
exciting anticipating the beginning of a new life. To celebrate this joyous,
holy occasion the CCW Gabriel Project will be collecting small gifts and
gift cards to share with our families with new babies. Many of our families
can't afford new layettes items: blankets, booties, socks, and. What a
wonderful way for us to celebrate Gods newest gifts of life! Please bring
small items and gift cards to Mass on May 4th and May 11th (Mothers Day); a
basket and Gift Card box will be displayed in the entrance of our church. If
you are headed back up North please feel free to call me and I'll gladly
pick up your gift at an earlier date. God bless and thank you for your
generosity and prayers. Marge Rafferty 3812 Leeway Court Sebring, Fl.

GABRIEL
ANGEL DAILY PRAYER
Dear Jesus,
We come to you this afternoon in supplications,
and ask, to enter your Heart of Divine Love, with
the mothers You have bound to the Gabriel Angel’s lives, and entrusted to
their care, in Your name.
Lord, they are not able to love them like You do,
they are not able to provide for them like You can.
They have nothing good to offer them but You,
who alone are all good, and every blessing to them.
And so Good shepherd, please protect these mothers and deliver them from
evil this day.
Supply their every need, according to Your merciful and
kind providence, and bountiful generosity.
Let them experience your infinite tenderness
and gentleness towards mothers and children.
Bind them to You with cords of love, and may their path
Today be fragrant with Your loving kindness. And at the end of this day, as
at the end of their lives, enfold them in Your eternal embrace in peace.
And now Lord we bring these specific needs to you, for your loving
attention. (Pause and name intention)
Thank you Lord for hearing our prayers. Amen |
