St. Michael the Archangel, we honor you as a powerful protector of the Church and guardian of our souls. Inspire us with your humility, courage, and strength that we may reject sin and perfect our love for our Heavenly Father.

In your strength and humility, slay the evil and pride in our hearts so that nothing will keep us from God.

St. Michael the Archangel, pray that we may have the grace to see the image of God in the least of our brothers and sisters.

St. Michael the Archangel, you are the prince of angels but in your humility, you recognized that God is God and you are but His servant, Unlike Satan, you were not overcome with pride but were steadfast in humility. Pray that we will have this same humility.

It is in the spirit of that humility that we ask for your intercession for our petitions…[state your petitions]

As we pray leading up to the Feast of the Archangels on September 29th, here are some other great resources to help inspire awe in your children about these heavenly helpers!

Children are intrigued by angels, and we actually know a lot about them. Learn from this new, full-color book, packed full of angel info from the Bible, the saints, the Catechism, and Church tradition.

In a straightforward Q&A approach we answer what children ask us about angels:

  • When did God make angels–and why?
  • How are they like us–and how are they not like us?
  • What do they do? (And you’ll learn many, many Scriptural examples!)
  • Are all angels alike? What did St Thomas Aquinas tell us?
  • Where can you go which will always be full of angels?
  • Prayers the angels say, prayers we can say to the angels–so much more!

The Children’s Book of Angels presents Catholic teaching about angels for children ages 3-7.

And–NEW this year is our Choirs of Angels Poster! Make sure you check out this NEW Angel resource HERE.
