Service Programs & Outreach
Living Our Faith Through ServiceBe Christ, Every Day, Everywhere
At St. Gabriel School, we believe that
every child is gifted by God with unique talents and a heart capable of great love. We teach our students that using these gifts in service to others is not only a responsibility, but a joy—and a powerful way to make the world a better place.
Guided by our parish and school mission to
"Be Christ, Every Day, Everywhere," students are encouraged to serve one another in our school and parish family, as well as in the wider community. Service is woven throughout our curriculum, liturgical life, and student programs to help build compassion, leadership, and empathy.
