The Marian Devotional Movement invites the Dioceses of Canada and the United States through parishes, prayer groups, families, and individuals to participate in the FILL the ARK movement to transport the prayer intentions and Consecrations to the Immaculate Heart of Mary to the National Eucharistic Congress at Lucas Oil Stadium mirroring the Marian Congress of the 1947.

The Chaplet of Saint Michael the Archangel / From the Marian Devotional Movement

 The Chaplet of St. Michael the Archangel 

 

The Chaplet of St. Michael is a wonderful way to honor this great Archangel along with the other nine Choirs of Angels. What do we mean by Choirs? It seems that God has created various orders of Angels. Sacred Scripture distinguishes nine such groupings: Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominations, Powers, Virtues, Principalities, Archangels and Angels (Isa. 6: 2; Gen. 3: 24; Col. 1: 16; Eph. 1: 21; Rom. 8: 38). There may be more groupings but these are the only ones that have been revealed to us. The Seraphim is believed to be the highest Choir, the most intimately united to God, while the Angelic Choir is the lowest. 

The history of this Chaplet goes back to a devout Servant of God, Antonia d'Astonac, who had a vision of St. Michael. He told Antonia to honor him by nine salutations to the nine Choirs of Angels. St. Michael promised that whoever would practice this devotion in his honor would have, when approaching Holy Communion, an escort of nine angels chosen from each of the nine Choirs. In addition, for those who would recite the Chaplet daily, he promised his continual assistance and that of all the holy angels during life, and after death deliverance from purgatory for themselves and their relations.

 

The Chaplet of St. Michael 

O God, come to my assistance. O Lord, make haste to help me. Glory be to the father, etc. 

Opening Prayer 

 

O Mighty Prince of the Heavenly Host Saint Michael, we beg you to protect and defend us in all struggles against the everyday temptations in this world, help us to overcome all evils and strengthen us that we may declare our faith in loyalty to the most High, so that together with all the angels and saints in heaven we may glorify the Lord. Saint Michael, please intercede for us together with the Blessed Virgin Mary and obtain for us all the intentions on our chaplet. Present to God the Father all these petitions, through Jesus Christ our Lord together with the Holy Spirit, forever and ever, Amen 

[Say one Our Father and three Hail Marys after each of the following nine salutations in honor of the nine Choirs of Angels] 

1. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Seraphim may the Lord make us worthy to burn with the fire of perfect charity.  
Amen. 

2. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Cherubim may the Lord grant us the grace to leave the ways of sin and run in the paths of Christian perfection.  
Amen. 

3. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Thrones may the Lord infuse into our hearts a true and sincere spirit of humility.  
Amen. 

4. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Dominations may the Lord give us grace to govern our senses and overcome any unruly passions.  
Amen. 

5. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Virtues may the Lord preserve us from evil and falling into temptation.  
Amen. 

6. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Powers may the Lord protect our souls against the snares and temptations of the devil.  
Amen. 

7. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Principalities may God fill our souls with a true spirit of obedience.  
Amen. 

8. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Archangels may the Lord give us perseverance in faith and in all good works in order that we may attain the glory of Heaven.  
Amen. 

9. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Angels may the Lord grant us to be protected by them in this mortal life and conducted in the life to come to Heaven.  
Amen. 

Say one Our Father in honor of each of the following leading Angels: St. Michael, St. Gabriel, St. Raphael and our Guardian Angel. 

Concluding prayers: 

O glorious prince St. Michael, chief and commander of the heavenly hosts, guardian of souls, vanquisher of rebel spirits, servant in the house of the Divine King and our admirable conductor, you who shine with excellence and superhuman virtue deliver us from all evil, who turn to you with confidence and enable us by your gracious protection to serve God more and more faithfully every day. 

Pray for us, O glorious St. Michael, Prince of the Church of Jesus Christ, that we may be made worthy of His promises. 

Almighty and Everlasting God, Who, by a prodigy of goodness and a merciful desire for the salvation of all men, has appointed the most glorious Archangel St. Michael Prince of Your Church, make us worthy, we ask You, to be delivered from all our enemies, that none of them may harass us at the hour of death, but that we may be conducted by him into Your Presence. This we ask through the merits of Jesus Christ Our Lord.  
Amen.

Queen of the Most Holy Rosary Pilgrimage August 23, 2019 - Day 5

Sunday August 25th, 2019 

Around 7:45 AM after Barb and I packed our clothes and felt organized enough for our trip home, we headed down to the cafeteria for breakfast. It was really good: bacon and eggs, toast, fruit coffee, peanut butter.  As long as there is coffee, toast and peanut butter I'm good to go. I could live on those three items. 

Eileen and me 

 After breakfast we found a nice place to sit outside until the pilgrimage wrap up in the Basilica Hub. I have been on pilgrimages to the Cape Shrine many times before and never was the weather so perfect. I remember one time when I went to the Cape with the Legion of Mary, that it was raining buckets as we were leaving to attend mass Monday morning in the old Shrine. I dug into my archives to see what year this was and I found it. It was in 2007. Wow how time flies 

A little bit of trivia  below from Legion of Mary member, Jennifer Snell. If you happen to be a member of the Legion of Mary you might remember this 

" Monday brought thunderstorms; but this disturbance was no competition for pilgrims who spontaneously recited the rosary while Sister Marilyn and Brother Jean Pierre organized transportation to mass in the old chapel. Our Blessed Lady's presence was palpable as she protected us from harm’s way. The resonance of pilgrims reciting the rosary was one the most memorable sounds I recall, just like a chorus of angels. It is worth mentioning that the last pilgrims arrived at mass just as the consecration was beginning. " Jennifer Snell , August 2007

9:00 AM Pilgrimage wrap up in the Basilica HUB

and draw for the 3 foot statue of Mary 

11:30 Holy Mass in the " OLD Shrine, Celebrated by Bishop Tremblay 

Entrance Procession - Here I am Lord 

Closing Hymn - Immaculate Mary 

After singing the closing hymn we were asked to go up to the front of the Church for a group picture . Since I wasn't able to get a photo of the entire Group I took a couple of pictures as everybody was leaving so these are my  " Group Photos " 

 I don't know how we all were able to fit up on the altar, but we did  :-)

We left the Cape around 1:30PM and arrived in Ottawa around 6:00 Pm I believe but I forgot to check my watch so I'm not exactly sure. After collecting our luggage, Barb and I walked down to Bank Street and found a nice little restaurant called Feleena's which served very good Mexican food.  We shared some really yummy Nachos and either a Margarita or a coffee :-)

Then we both took a city bus home.

We thank everybody who worked so hard

to make this such a wonderful spiritual experience.

Jesus Mary and Saint Joseph, 

Thank you for everything!

Jesus we trust in You! 

Mama Mary we entrust ourselves to you!
