Dear St. Gabriel Families,

​As we welcome the beautiful month of December, our hearts turn toward the joy, anticipation, and deep faith that make this season so special in our school community.

Advent invites us to slow down amid the busyness, to look for the light of Christ breaking into our world, and to prepare our hearts with hope, peace, joy, and love.

Throughout this Advent season, our classrooms will be filled with prayer, reflection, and traditions that help us prepare for the coming of Jesus at Christmas. From Advent wreaths and Jesse Trees to our Adopt A Family  service project and daily moments of quiet gratitude, we hope these practices help our students grow in faith and experience the true meaning of the season.

We are also looking forward to celebrating St. Nicholas Day, a feast that beautifully captures the spirit of charity and kindness. St. Nicholas reminds us that small acts of generosity can make a big difference, and we pray that his example inspires our students to share Christ’s love with others in simple, joyful ways.

One of the highlights of this time of year is our PTU Santa Shop, a beloved tradition that allows our students the joy of choosing thoughtful gifts for family and friends. We are grateful to our PTU and the many volunteers who spend countless hours creating a magical and meaningful shopping experience for our children. Their generosity helps our students learn about giving from the heart—one of the greatest lessons of the season.

​Thank you for partnering with us in nurturing the hearts and minds of your children. May this Advent be a time of grace for your family—a season of waiting, watching, and welcoming the Lord who comes to dwell with us.
​
Wishing you a blessed Advent and a joyful Christmas,
Robert Kumazec
