Natasha gave birth to baby Emmanuel who was born November 24th. He was 12 lbs, 3ozs, and 23 in. long. According to Laura Bowman, ministry coordinator for the Gabriel Project, “We call him our new little man, our biggest baby to date!” The Gabriel Project at Project Defending Life assisted Natasha.
In 2008, PDL, through the Gabriel Project ministry, supported mothers in crisis with over $15,000 in emergency support services. Currently, parishes in the archdiocese which have implemented Gabriel Projects are San Clemente in Los Lunas, Our Lady of Guadalupe in Albuquerque, St. Anne’s in Santa Fe, St. Bernadette’s in Albuquerque and at PDL. More Gabriel Project information Sundays are planned in 2009 to introduce other parishes to the Gabriel Project. If you’re interested in your parish sponsoring a Gabriel Project Sunday to inform parishioners about this vital ministry, please contact Laura Bowman at PDL, 266-4100.
