Feast of St. Michael: Today's Blessing

Peace be with you. Today we celebrated the Archangel St. Michael who cast Satan and his followers from heaven. This is not a worship of St. Michael but simply celebrating the casting of Satan and his minions out of heaven. There are two blessings today. 

May God Who for our salvation makes use of the ministry of His angels, preserve you by their protection, and strengthen us by their custodianship. Amen. May He give you pure minds, and  haste joining of bodies,  Who assures their equality to all of the elect. Amen. May He grant them most certain trust of His eternity; may He Himself  confirm you with the  virtue of the perseverance of faith, hope, and charity,  and may He lead you unto their society of blessedness. Amen. May He Whose Kingdom and Dominion remain without end, be pleased to sustain us unto ages of ages. Amen. May the blessing of God: the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and the peace of the Lord be ever with you. Amen.     

May the beginning of the light of the angels bless you, who He made His co-citizens and consorts among the thrones of the highest. Amen. By whose ministrations your life is protected on earth, so that freed from visible and invisible enemies, you may be worthy to enter into eternal rewards. Amen. Joined in their act of veneration, borne up by the aid of Archangel Michael whose memory we celebrate today, most devotedly on the fertile lands, so that you may enjoy his society in the heavens. Amen. May He Whose Kingdom and Dominion remain without end, be pleased to sustain us unto ages of ages. Amen. May the blessing of God: the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and the peace of the Lord be ever with you. Amen.
