Collection: 📚 St. Gabriel the Archangel

St. Gabriel the Archangel is one of the three holy archangels named in Sacred Scripture, known as God’s special messenger. His name means “God is my strength.” Gabriel is best remembered for announcing to the Blessed Virgin Mary that she would conceive and bear the Son of God, Jesus Christ (Luke 1:26–38). He also appeared to Zechariah to foretell the birth of St. John the Baptist and is believed to have been the angel who revealed God’s message to the prophet Daniel. Gabriel’s role in salvation history reminds the faithful of God’s nearness and His divine plan of mercy and redemption.
