The Meaning of the Archangel Gabriel Icon
The Archangel Gabriel is honored as a messenger of God. His name is traditionally rendered “Strength of God.” In Scripture, he explains visions to Daniel and announces to Zacharias the birth of John the Baptist.
At the Annunciation, Gabriel brings the Virgin Mary the news that she will bear Jesus Christ, the Son of God. His message points to the mystery of the Incarnation: the eternal Son truly becomes man for our salvation.
An icon of Gabriel recalls the joyful announcement of Christ’s coming and invites attentiveness to God’s word. The honor given to this heavenly messenger leads us to glorify the God whom he serves.

Caring for your icon
Keep your icon out of direct sunlight and away from damp walls and heat. Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth, and never use water or cleaning products on the gold leaf. If you keep a vigil lamp or candles nearby, leave space so soot does not settle on the icon.
Having your icon blessed
Many Orthodox Christians bring a new icon to their parish priest to be blessed before placing it in the home. Just bring it with you to church and ask Father after the service.
