​Charity of the Week.....

Each year to help reinforce service and helping those less fortunate, St. Gabriel VBS chooses a charity to support.  This year we will focus on the needs of those in St. Croix that our own Mission Trip teens will be visiting June 23 to 30 .  Please see the item list below - a generous parishioner has offered to ship them free of charge.  Deposit bins will be located in the entrance way of the school during VBS.  JESUS RESCUES!

Here's a bit on what the Mission Trip High School kids and Adult Chaperones will be doing:

• Working at a soup kitchen, delivering food to the poor and homebound
• Helping out at a boys and girls club
• Visiting at a youth detention center
• Running a Vacation Bible School-type program
• Building shelves at a Catholic school
• Repairing homes and churches damaged by the hurricane

Our focus VBS week with be for the two Catholic schools, totaling about 200 students that our group will be involved with.  They are poor and need school supplies for the fall. Their requests and the requests for other areas are:

• electric pencil sharpeners

• whiteboard markers and erasers
• art supplies (such as crayons, markers, and coloring books)
• sporting equipment
• nail polish (elderly and disabled love having their nails polished)
• bubble wands (the long, skinny tubes that make larger bubbles)

Anything you think would be appreciated will be appreciated!

 Each day our Sail Away Sendoff begins at noon, and all parents and grandparents are welcome to join us (arrive at 11:50)!  Friday is our special Finale which ends in a tasty ice cream social!  We would love to have everyone come and ask you let us know how many in your family will attend!
