Gabriel (Gabe) Colombo works at the intersection of theology, liturgy, urbanism, and ecology. His scholarship, ministry, and design practice propose “eucharistic urbanism” as a mode of thinking, making, and inhabiting cities that attends to the sacredness of urban spaces and land and refers them back to God. Originally from Austin, Texas—the ancestral homelands of the Coahuiltecan, Tonkawa, Comanche, and Lipan Apache peoples—he received a B.A. in Plan II Honors (humanities) and urban studies from the University of Texas at Austin and a Master of Architecture from the Harvard Graduate School Design. Having practiced as an urban planner and designer in Boston for several years, he is now a postulant for holy orders to the priesthood in the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts and an M.Div student at YDS, the ISM, and Berkeley Divinity School.
