ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL

Glorious Prince of the heavenly hosts and victor over rebellious spirits, be mindful of me who am so weak and sinful and yet so prone to pride and ambition. Lend me, I pray, thy powerful aid in every temptation and difficulty, and above all do not forsake me in my last struggle with the powers of evil. Amen.

I know I can accomplish nothing by my own strength, whereas thou can do everything that is the will of thy Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ. Thou are always victorious. Grant, therefore, O Helper of the Faithful, that my family, my parish, and my country might become in truth the Kingdom where thou reignest in the glorious presence God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, forever and ever. Amen.

Worthy of repetition. To Jesus through Mary. Just as she interceded to her Son at Cana. Jesus, being God as well as man, knew there was no wine: yet He allowed His mother to intercede and to be the one to say to the servants in turn, "do as He tells you." This is Jesus and His mother.

Saul went to a witch to conjure the spirit of Samuel. She was terrified when she realized she had contacted a holy man, and Samuel chastised Saul for doing this. That was necromancy.
