Welcome to the Gabriel Project of East Texas Angels' website. We hope to provide you with helpful news and resources to support you as you offer practical assistance to mothers and children in need. We also hope it will offer you your own special place to find “angel” news and share your successes and trials.
Our mission as Gabriel Angels is to respect all life—at every age, in every circumstance. This means that we are profoundly committed not only to the unborn child and its mother, but to bringing the love of God to all we meet.
Bishop Joseph Strickland, Bishop of Tyler, encourages us to use the following prayer for the sanctity of life.
Sanctity of Life
Oh God, Giver of Life,
From the moment of conception
Protect this life
And help us to recognize and guard its sanctity.
From conception, Oh God, we acknowledge
That this life belongs to you
And that to tamper with this life
Is to tamper with your Holy Plan.
We step back, Oh God, in awe of your Majesty
And recognize that this life is not ours.
We acknowledge your Divine Plan for this life
And we remove our hands from your creation.
Amen.
