By submitting this form, you are agreeing to the following
Statement of Belief and Intent for Project Gabriel: An integral part of the Project Gabriel/GEMS program involves witnessing to the truth and beauty of our sexuality through such topics as abortion, birth control, sterilization, in-vitro fertilization, pornography, fornication and adultery. The Church regards these as sinful behaviors because they are an attack on the dignity of the human person. During the course of the pairing, it may become necessary for an Angel to address these topics. This is an opportunity to witness to the Christian view of sexuality, marriage and family life, inviting the client to learn about chastity and fertility awareness, including Natural Family Planning (NFP) for those clients who are married. I believe in the sanctity of life and the dignity of the human person. In so doing I understand, accept, and promote the moral teachings of the Catholic Church regarding human sexuality in accordance with my state in life. As a Gabriel Angel I pledge never to offer any counseling to a woman, or perform any action that could be interpreted as recommending birth control through abortion, contraceptive behaviors, in vitro fertilization, or sterilization. I will at all times be a witness to these teachings through my personal principles and practices. If in the future I am not able to do so, I will notify Project Gabriel/GEMS and withdraw as an Angel.
