Michaelmas


Did you know that Saint Michael is the patron of police officers? Here's a prayer on their behalf:
Dear St. Michael, your name means, "Who is like God?" and it indicates that you remained faithful when others rebelled against God. Help police officers in our day who strive to stem the rebellion and evil that are rampant on all sides. Keep them faithful to their God as well as to their country and their fellow human beings. Amen.

  1. how timely that this prayer for police officers would be for this day - 3000 gathered in Port Angeles WA today to honor, Kristine Fairbanks, a U.S. Forest Service officer who was slain in the line of duty last week. May she rest in peace.
