Have you ever prayed the Chaplet of St. Michael the Archangel?
This powerful devotion was given to us in an apparition of St. Michael to a Portuguese Carmelite, Servant of God Antonia d’Astonac, in the 1700s. St. Michael told her that those who recite this Chaplet—which honors St. Michael and all the angels—will receive an escort of nine angels, one from each choir, as they approach Holy Communion.
For those who recite the Chaplet daily, he also promised the constant help and protection of himself and all the holy angels during life, and deliverance from purgatory after death for them and their relations.
The Chaplet of St. Michael
The Chaplet is easy to say and takes less than fifteen minutes. In honor of each of the nine choirs of angels, you say a particular salutation to that choir, one Our Father, and three Hail Marys. Then you say four Our Fathers in honor of the three Archangels and your guardian angel, and a closing prayer. That’s it!
At The Catholic Company, we designed a Chaplet of St. Michael that recalls the power and sanctity of the Prince of the Heavenly Host. Composed of sturdy steel-grey hematite beads and finished with an Italian St. Michael/Guardian Angel medal, this piece will inspire you to spiritual courage in the battle against the devil. Includes a prayer card with instructions on how to pray the Chaplet. Available today at The Catholic Company!
