Day 1

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Intro Prayer

St. Gabriel the Archangel, I venerate you as the Angel of the Incarnation, because God has specially appointed you to bear the messages concerning the God-Man to Daniel, Zechariah, and the Blessed Virgin Mary. Give me a very tender and devoted love for the Incarnate Word and his Blessed Mother, more like your own.

I venerate you also as the Strength from God, because you are the giver of God’s strength, consoler and comforter chosen to strengthen God’s faithful and to teach them important truths.

I ask for the grace of a special power of the will to strive for holiness of life. Steady my resolutions, renew my courage, comfort and console me in the problems, trials, and sufferings of daily living, as you consoled our Savior in His agony and Mary in her sorrows and Joseph in his trials. I put my confidence in you.

St. Gabriel, I ask you especially for this favor: (mention your request here). Through your earnest love for the Son of God and for His blessed Mother, I beg of you, intercede for me that my request may be granted, if it be God’s holy Will.

Answered Prayers From This Novena

My son has a neuromuscular disability, and together—my husband, my son, and I—prayed a Novena to Archangel Gabriel, asking to understand ours and our son’s purpose in life. Many people have told us that there’s a special purpose, one meant to glorify the Lord.

After we finished the Novena, my sister, who had no idea we had been praying, sent us a short clip from The Chosen—where Jesus speaks to Little James. What Jesus said in that scene felt like a direct answer to our prayer. When I showed it to my son, he cried.

The message was clear: Be patient. The time will come. Even if healing doesn’t happen in this lifetime, it will come in Heaven. His suffering is part of his journey toward Heaven. We are not unloved, forgotten, or neglected. It was a powerful reminder that God’s plan for us, even with all its pain and uncertainty, is filled with love and purpose.

And what makes it even more special is that my sister’s baptism name is Gabriel. Not only did Jesus speak to us directly (even through an actor), but Archangel Gabriel (my sister’s name), also delivered the message to us!

from S.T.


My friend’s parcel arrived safely to me, and my own parcel arrived safely to her! In both cases there were delays that made us fearful that the parcel would be lost in transit, and my delay was even longer than hers. In the end, thankfully, nothing was lost.
