St. Gabriel the Archangel

St. Gabriel the Archangel is one of the three archangels mentioned in the Bible. He is known as the messenger of God, most famous for announcing the birth of Jesus to the Virgin Mary. He also appeared to Zechariah to foretell the birth of John the Baptist. His feast day is celebrated on September 29, along with St. Michael and St. Raphael.

St. Gabriel the Archangel is a heavenly being who serves as a messenger of God in the Old and New Testaments. His name means "God is my strength." He is first mentioned in the Book of Daniel, where he explains visions to the prophet Daniel.

In the New Testament, St. Gabriel is most famous for his role in the Annunciation—he appeared to the Virgin Mary, telling her that she would conceive Jesus, the Son of God. He also appeared to Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist, announcing his son’s miraculous birth despite his wife’s old age.

The Catholic Church honors Gabriel, Michael, and Raphael as the three great archangels. Although angels do not have physical form, Gabriel is often depicted as a radiant being with wings, sometimes holding a lily (a symbol of purity), a trumpet (symbolizing divine messages), or a scroll (representing God's word).

St. Gabriel is the patron saint of messengers, postal workers, broadcasters, and communication. Since he delivered God’s most joyful news, many people pray to him for guidance in sharing messages of hope and truth.
