Feast Of Saint Michael The Archangel - 29 September

Quoted below is from St. Michael's World Apostolate  [1]:

About the year 525, St. Michael appeared on the summit of Monte Gargano in southern Italy, and directed that a sanctuary should be erected to him. This place became celebrated on account of numerous miracles.

This basilica was consecrated to St. Michael by St. Boniface II., on the site of the Roman Circus.

Saint Michael the Archangel's prayer in Latin and English (short version) [3]:

Sáncte Míchael Archángele, defénde nos in proélio, cóntra nequítiam et insídias diáboli ésto præsídium. Ímperet ílli Déus, súpplices deprecámur: tuque, prínceps milítiæ cæléstis, Sátanam aliósque spíritus malígnos, qui ad perditiónem animárum pervagántur in múndo, divína virtúte, in inférnum detrúde. Ámen. [4]

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.  Be our protection against the malice and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen.
