Overview
Where we were...
The parish community of St. Gabriel the Archangel parish was established in the September of 2007 in Chestermere Alberta after starting as a mission of St. Mark’s before that. Since then, Mass has been celebrated in the gymnasium of St. Gabriel the Archangel school. Over the years we have grown as a family community and have build familial friendship as a parish, every summer we have a parish hiking trip called "Angels on High".

Where we are...
We are inspired by faith, while following God’s path to receive His grace, as together we build a community that welcomes, nurtures and supports “For nothing will be impossible with God.” Luke 1:37

Where we are heading...
" The perfect church service, would be one we were almost unaware of. Our attention would have been on God" (C.S. Lewis). Our parish of St. Gabriel’s is working toward having our own church building where we can forget about all other things, and immerse ourselves in our relationship with God as CS Lewis says above. We will build a Church that welcomes and creates opportunities to gather in friendship and faith. We will move beyond our walls in compassion and service.
