Prayer to Saint Gabriel for Others

O loving messenger of the Incarnation, descend upon all those for whom I wish peace and happiness. Spread your wings over the cradles of the newborn babes, O thou who didst announce the coming of the Infant Jesus.

Give to the young a lily petal from the virginal scepter in your hand. Cause the Ave Maria to re-echo in all hearts that they may find grace and joy through Mary.

Finally, recall the sublime words spoken on the day of the Annunciation - "Nothing is impossible with God," and repeat them in hours of trial - to all I love - that their confidence in Our Lord may be reanimated, when all human help fails. Amen.
