Go! Fund
The "Go!"" Fund is an Outreach fund inspired by the desire of the participants of the “Beacon of Hope” Town Hall Meetings. The St. Gabriel Finance Council heard the parishioners’ appeals for Community Outreach and responded by setting aside Auction and Flea Market proceeds to start this fund. The purpose of this fund is to resource parishioners who wish to head our Lord’s commission to Go! And make disciples of all nations (cf. Matthew 28:19). For this reason, we have name this the “Go!” Fund. New disciples are often made by the community of disciples going out and meeting another person in their need.
Outreach is the Church at work in God’s name, stretching out to meet the needs in the wider communi ty. As Baptized members of Christ’s body, we engage in outreach whenever we intentionally invite our Lord to work through us by serving the needs of others.
If you have or would like to make a difference with Christ in our community through outreach and need funding, please see details below.
