Welcome to St. Gabe's!

We are a vibrant, welcoming, and growing community of faith, feeding the hearts, minds, and spirits of all who come. We hope you will join us throughout our site as we host information about the warmth of our parish community. St. Gabe's is our spiritual home and offers a true sense of family to all of our members. While we are reverent in our faith, we are relaxed, comfortable, and spiritually refreshing in our relationships with one another. One of St. Gabriel's greatest blessings is found in its people. We love to eat together, pray together, and serve together both within our parish and within our Outreach Ministries. If you are a first time visitor, be our guest at a service or simply get to know us on our website. If you are already a parishioner, we thank you for being a cherished part of creating what we call "home."

Meet Gabby...

...our Church cat! Gabby is our unofficial greeter and welcomes all of our visitors. She is often found at most meetings and her favorite spot is on someone's notepad (or bible). She bestows her attention on everyone from the smallest child to our bishop.

LifeShare...Inspiring Moments

We love to share the love of God, the message of Jesus Christ, and the glory of the Holy Spirit working through people every day. We are His hands and His feet as we reach out to others in need whether they are young or old, short or tall, furry or finned. All of God's creatures are blessings. Share your favorite people in action helping others. Touch a life today.

Today's story: meet Daisy...God's miracle working through people and the courage of our "persons of fur".

What could you and a little love accomplish with God today?

A Season for Life

We are a people of passion for wonderful music and how music allows us to celebrate and worship in meaningful ways. We thought you might enjoy the musical talents of The Piano Guys as they share their gifts in this rendition of O Come, Emmanuel. An Advent and Christmas favorite for many, these two talented musicians raise the bar and remind us that the celebration of Jesus spans His entire lifetime. Kudos to the Mormon Network and The Piano Guys for a wonderful rendition. Sit back, grab a coffee, and listen to the music as we celebrate the Love of God through the precious gift of His son during our Advent Season. Advent is indeed the season of "anticipation" for the arrival of hope, wonder, grace, mercy, healing, and love. May joyous anticipation surround you this season and throughout all seasons.

Anglican Rosaries at St. Gabriel's

The use of beads in prayer is an ancient practice in the Christian tradition and can be found in nearly all of the world's major religions. The rosary is a wonderful tool to help focus prayer and to allow the one praying to deepen his or her experience of God in prayer.
