Novena To Saint Michael The Archangel


Donna

Recommended Posts

Tonight as I was praying a different novena invoking the Three Archangels, suddenly I remembered that Sept. 29th was Michael's feast... and commenced to begin the novena which should have been begun the 19th of September (and feast of Our Lady of La Salette).

But Heaven understands. So by all means do the novena.

In the 1962 liturgical calendar September 29th reads, The Dedication of St. Michael Archangel. On the new calendar, Sept. 29 is the feast of the Three Archangels (Michael, Gabriel and Raphael), but do not hold me to that (I'm sure you'll correct me if I'm wrong).

This novena below invokes all Three Acrchangels. So it is perfect.

NOVENA IN HONOR OF ST. MICHAEL AND ALL THE HOLY ANGELS

First day: Ardent Seraphim, you who dwell in the eternal

home of love, unceasingly absorbed in the rays of the Sun of

Justice, we beg you in virtue of the Divine Blood, to enkindle

in our hearts that holy fire with which you are consumed.

(Note: all that follows in blue should be prayed after each daily prayer of the novena).

St. Michael the Archangel, and all ye Holy Angels, protect

us in our combats, that we may not perish in the tremendous

judgement of God.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to

the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now

and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

[

The following prayers in red are said at the novena's end]

Antiphon: O Most Glorious Prince, Michael, the Archangel, be

mindful of us, here and everywhere, and always pray to the

Son of God for us.

Verse: I will praise Thee, O God, in the sight of Thy Angels.

Response: I will adore Thee in Thy holy temple and I will

confess Thy name.

LET US PRAY

O God, who hast in an admirable order disposed the ministry of angels and of men

grant in Thy goodness that our life on earth

may be protected by those who in heaven

always assist before Thy throne ready to do Thy will.

Through Our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Hey Donna why don't you post the start dates for all the different novenas on the calender, and we can have a permanent novena thread posted with all the prayers.

Makes it easier than trying to find it.

Yer welcome, Flowery!

Anna it's always great to hear from you!

Cmom, yes, I'd love to do that; can you tell me how?

The rest of the novena follows. I am indebted to a webiste

(I'll name it in a following post), for I lost my copy of the

novena today. I pray St. Anthony return it to me soon, as

there were other prayers on it, the like of which I've never

seen since.
