St. Michael
|
 |
The name Michael signifies "Who is like to God?" and was the war cry 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. Even to this day, the Jews invoke the holy Archangel Michael as the principal defender of the Synagogue and their protector against their enemies. On the Feast of the Atonement they conclude their prayers with this beautiful invocation: 'Michael, Prince of mercy, pray for Israel, that it may reign in Heaven, in that light which streams forth from the Face of the King Who sits upon the throne of mercy'.
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. His Feast Day is September 29. |
