“O mighty Archangel St. Gabriel, your appearance to the Virgin Mary of Nazareth brought light to the world, which was plunged in darkness. Thus you spoke to the Blessed Virgin; “Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you… the Son to be born of you will be called Son of the Most High”. Saint Gabriel, intercede for us with the Blessed Virgin, Mother of Jesus, Savior. Remove from the world the darkness of unbelief and idolatry. Make the light of faith shine in all hearts. Help youth to imitate Our Lady in the virtues of purity and humility. Give strength to all men against vices and sin. Saint Gabriel! May the light of your message, announcing the Redemption of the human race, illuminate my path and guide all humanity towards heaven. Saint Gabriel, pray for us, Amen.”
