Archangel Gabriel and Big Bertha

   
   "Archangel Gabriel and Big Bertha"
  
   Can you feel it in the air?  My Grandma (Big Bertha) was a tough as steel daughter of German immigrants.  She was brutally honest, chain-smoked, and practiced her faith.  She went too far at times, like me, but anything to Godsmack a soul.  She used to say:  "You're gonna have a rude awakening!!!"  We all got it coming.  But look to the skies and repent.  It's wise to fear God and pray for your adversaries.

St. Gabriel, Holy Archangel, you, who are known as the bearer of God's secrets meant especially for His chosen ones, we, God's children, are constantly keeping watch on God's message.  Through your powerful intercession, may we receive God's words and messages so that together with Mary, our Blessed Mother, we may give glory and praise to Him.  May we also radiate God's love to others by our exemplary deeds.  O, St. Gabriel, obtain for us the grace and present to God the Father the following requests (Here Mention Request) through Jesus Christ our Lord together with the Holy Spirit forever and ever.  Amen.
