St. Michael the Archangel

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.  Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the

devil.  May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of

God, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.

Amen.

The prayer to St. Michael is recited following the close of all Masses except Sundays, Feast days and Solemnities.  The Feast Day of St. Michael the Archangel is September 29th each year.
