Saint Michael, protect us!














In these times of increased persecution of Christians, Michael, a poster on Father Joe Jenkins' blog, reminds us to pray the powerful St. Michael's Prayer.

Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in the day of battle.
Be our safeguard against the wickedness
and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray.
And do thou, oh prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God, cast into hell,
Satan, and all the evil spirits
that prowl about the world,
seeking the ruin of souls.

~Amen

"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
