Feast Of St. Michael The Archangel 2020
The opening words of the Apocalypse begin today’s Epistle and show St. Michael proclaiming Christ as the Ruler of the world. The Gospel warns against the scandal of the innocent because their angels ever behold the face of God. This feast honors the leader of the angels, St. Michael, who earned his name in defending God’s honor against the attacks of Lucifer who refused the divine invitation. He and his cohorts rebelled as many have done since because they are proud. St. Michael and the angels protect us from these enemies of our souls and aid us on our path to heaven. St. Michael, defend us in battle!
