In March of 2020, all Catholics of the Diocese of Dallas were dispensed from the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and other Holy Days of Obligation (canon 1247) as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic. After consultation with the priests of the Diocese of Dallas, and in light of the greatly improved conditions of the Diocese and the nation, I intend for this dispensation to be lifted and for the obligation to return on Sunday, November 28, 2021, the First Sunday of Advent.

The McKinney Courier-Gazette announced awards for various things in their most recent edition, and to our delight, St Gabriel was voted the best place to work! The staff agrees with this assessment. We all enjoy the work but are especially grateful for who we get to serve. Our parishioners are the BEST. Plus there's no better boss than Jesus! Thank you!
