    St, Gabriel, Only a a frail young innocent female who has civil dignified rights as a Canadian. I've been violently raped and molested, as a frail young innocent female. I'm shaken, from shock to my central nervous system. With civilized humanity, as an innocent frail, young discarded off female, who can't fend for herself anymore.

    Please send my heart and soul highest off healing at the most deepest and highest off level, at the very best. My heart needs deepest off healing from the painful indepth off the level off the pain, to that off my very human soul, and higher level.

    Please do send much needed deep healing. Only with sincerest off much kindness, with sincerest off regards

    greetings to you all,

    i had almost deleted twice what i have written since i couldn't find the perfect words to thank St Gabriel for what he has done for me, my family and for all that i prayed for all my life...no one can imagine the blessings i had , the guidance i got and the security i felt from him time and time again even while writing this....i am a 35 years old Ethiopian where i have been brought up by both an orthodox and catholic family " .as of childhood, we learned we all have guardians from god on our right side and we can personally choose in our minds and prayers any of the saint we were spoken of , prefer or came across happenings along our life time so i have mine accordingly in relation to my childhood history" the archangel" ...St Gabriel never failed me for any demands and always took care of me in times of danger, stress and worry where in recent times he saved my company through my prayers not because of any other explanations for those who think differently like i have seen above in the comments .....but i don't blame anyone since unless they pray and see the outcome they can never testify for his million works everyday on earth ,for all that need his help like me and who couldn't thank him enough to satisfy their minds.....i can never thank enough also this web for giving me the chance to express my feelings for him and will write more and on routine basis as of next week when i will still get his miracles performed for a second time on my company since i am sure he will....are you?if so please testify like me .....

    kind regards and thank you for reading..

    My Dear Archangel Gabriel,

    Today, Friday 25 January 2013, is my mother's birthday. Mama Stanislava was born in Serbia in a middle of a bitter winter in the early hours of Wednesday, 25 January 1938, in a small mud house. The village of less than 200 people is located in the mountainous region of Serbia, near the Bosnian border.

    I visited the irreparable mud house in 2009 and the only thing it is fit for are the chooks and a handful of roosters. I wanted to spend a few hours alone to meditate and soak up the atmosphere of the site, a site where my mother breathed her first breath. Out of the eleven born only fouur lived past their teens. Death claimed seven of them before they reached their teens due to lack of medical facilities and the scourge of war, summary executions. My grandfather (mum's dad) and her two brothers were to dig their graves and shot. In fact, it was NAZI policy to liquidate the male population in partizan dominated areas.

    Mama Stanislava survived the war with her three sisters and all three are still alive. Two are in Serbia and the other lives in Vienna, Austria whereas mum is the only one living in Australia. Life has been very harsh for my mother and she harbours many memories of severe deprivations and mens cruelty to men. Mama Stanislava managed to survive the many trials and tribulations of life.

    We came to Australia in 1970 and we've never looked back. This is our home and here is where we want to dieand be buried, and be covered by the Australian soil. What greater gift can a son give his mother for her birthday than the invitation to you, Archangel Gabriel, to pray for her before the Throne of God.

Im 25 years old with no children nor married and yet i feel now that you will help me through my hard time and struggles. wen i recieved the email stating that you have been watching over me for going on 26 years, i was shocked being as ive never been a religous person. I am greatful to have u watching over me!

    Praying to angels?? HOW DEMONIC! The angels themselves would NEVER tell NOT to pray to them, because they not only enjoy the attention but they know that praying to them is a complete sin!
    Take the Archangel Raphael, for an example! This demonic piece of filth masquerades as a holy healer and encourages delusional christians into thinking that it's OKAY to pray to him and the rest of the angelic race, but in reality, he's a fallen angel and has fooled mankind FOR AGES! And even the rest of the Archangels are NOT that holy---because otherwise they would have told the Saints and the Catholics to NEVER to pray to them!
    So keep praying to these bird-winged bats and you'll see where your faith in angels, these SO-CALLED holy beings, will take you---and it won't be to heaven.....
    By the way, Raphael is gay.

    I always tell my friends and colleague that i am guided from GOD and get advice in my dream. I feel to have a power to know if somebody is trying to harm me and in difficult situation, i was able to predict to myself what is going to happen especially at work and my private life.But now i am failing in my life but i take it positive by considering that i have done sin and not taken the advice given to me in my thought and dream. As i can read someone heart mostly my superiors, if they thought negative on me, i just resign and its happen to me 5 time in 25 years career. I am in a senior level position in manufacturing industry, i always try to be fair to everybody and bring a friendly environment by following the procedures, disciplines and Law regulation and that helps me to increase the company efficiency, i even got complain with 2 of my directors that i must not be friendly to the workers but i replied please check the efficiency not the friendship. I always do competition and try to be on top on efficiency without harming anybody but only by communicating and that create jealousy, as i do my prayer everyday and by my dream guidance i always succeeded. Who was the GOD and guidance in my dream???.
    LORD SAINT GABRIEL,i have been told you are my Guardian ANGEL, please help me! I believe in GOD, when i try on net to get some info on you, my tears came out by seeing your photo and i felt with energy and inspired, as i am a HINDU, i go to pray in the church occasionally.
    Thanks a lot for being my guardian and taking care at every moment and please return to my dream and shower your blessing on me, my wife and son.Give me instruction as you usually does in my heart. Protect me from all evils and remain strong.
    I am jobless for 5 months, more than 30 application done in South Africa, Canada and USA only 2 has been interviewed , waiting for selection.
    I live in a rental house for 16 years, my own house given by my father is under negotiation to get it in December without harming and using legal procedure to my brother who always swear and fight with me.My aim was to let my Nephew and Nice to study up to University level as my Brother was always fighting with my Aunt and HARASSING the whole family.

    LORD SAINT GABRIEL, my Guardian Angel return to my dream, remove my sin and bless me and my family and everybody who need help. AMEN.

    I am posting this message on Sunday, July 8, 2012. I wonder what will occur on THE ARCHANGEL GABRIEL'S Feastday on Saturday, September 29, 2012. Perhaps GABRIEL will deliver a message to the World, on that day, much the same as the message that he delivered to SAINT MARY, telling her that she was going to become the mother of the MESSIAH, and to name him JESUS. Thank You.

    I would like thank the Editors of Catholic Online for posting this website on THE ARCHANGEL GABRIEL. It's nice to know that GABRIEL hasn't been forgotten, even though it's been about 2,000 years since he last came to SAINT MARY and announced to her that she was going to become the mother of JESUS the MESSIAH.

    Dear ARCHANGEL GABRIEL, Since I'm named after you, I would like you to intercede on my behalf and ask THE ARCHANGEL MICHAEL to come to me in a dream at night. Thank You and GOD BLESS both you and MICHAEL.
