________________________________
Gabriel means “Messenger of God”. It was Gabriel who announced the time of the coming of the Messiah to the prophet Daniel. He appeared to Zachariah in the Temple to announce the birth of John the Baptist. Of course, his most famous announcement was when he approached the Virgin Mary to ask her to be the mother of God. Gabriel's words echoed throughout the ages as his greeting “Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art though amongst women...” became part of the Hail Mary prayer. The lily often symbolizes Gabriel because of his offer of never ending purity to Mary.
His feast day is September 29.
