St. Michael, the Archangel

St. Michael, the Archangel

Feastday: September 29
Patron of grocers, mariners, paratroopers, police, and sickness

St. Michael, the Archangel - Feast day - September 29th The name Michael signifies "Who is like to God?" and was the warcry of the good angels in the battle fought in heaven against satan and his followers. Holy Scripture describes St. Michael as "one of the chief princes," and leader of the forces of heaven in their triumph over the powers of hell. He has been especially honored and invoked as patron and protector by the Church from the time of the Apostles.

Although he is always called "the Archangel," the Greek Fathers and many others place him over all the angels - as Prince of the Seraphim. St. Michael is the patron of grocers, mariners, paratroopers, police and sickness.

    Lord you have given us archangels to assist us during our pilgrimage on earth.

    Saint Michael is our protector, I ask him to come to my aid, fight for all my loved ones, and protect us from danger.

    Saint Gabriel is a messenger for the Good News, I ask him to help me clearly hear your voice and to teach me the truth.

    Saint Raphael is the healing angel, I ask him to take my need for healing and that of everyone I know, lift it up to your throne of grace and deliver back to us the gift of recovery. Help us O Lord to realize more fully the reality of the archangels and their desire to serve us. Holy Angels pray for us. Amen

    Say for three days and see what happens on the fourth day . Thank you.

    I see another five people have been shoot dead in America, infact we have shootings quite often in America, even like when 'CHRIST' was born the children are killed in their play areas

    Yet you dont seem to celebrate the death of these gun tooting murderes yet you partied all night when the two who tormented you were silenced, even this web site made a quite antiChristian remark.

    Revelation 11: they will celebrate killing these two who witnessed who tormented them.

    Prophecy filled.

    At that time 'MICHAEl' the great Prince will arise, and people will beg to be dead but not able to die, this is actualy a Prophecy of when I shut up Heaven and hell so nobodie can die, even if you Americans put a gun to your head and shoot, you will not die for a period of five months, then after the five months you will all say "wow I am alive and will never die and Heaven is a marvell, I dont want to die any more!" Then the dreadful day comes, and the sun falls out the sky.

    Why do you separate Christianity from Catholicism and place Christianity before Catholicism? If you are going to acknowledge separate Christian sects why do you quote a "Catholic saint" underneath Christianity? As a Catholic constantly defending my faith from Protestants I find the attitude of this article counterproductive to promoting The Faith.

    Saint 'MICHAEl' the ArchAngel

    the one
    the one and only one
    400 million billion trillion thousand
    and only one (Revelation 5)

    Now when 'MICHAEL' was talking to Abraham about the destruction of sodom and gomoroh, I said to Abraham, "for the sake of one, I will not kill you all!"

    If not for me, no life left on earth, I AM the only reason your alive, so quickly now, kill me.

    'JESUS' on vatican city....

    not one stone left ontop of another

    I saw St. Michael three time already. I can't however remenber the conversation between me and Him. He has helped me several times with many things. People who don't understand the Catholic have argued with me on many issues and I always feel courage flows through me and I can defend the faith.
