PRAYER

O God, whom you raised up in the midst of your people, Saint Peter Canisius, a priest full of charity and wisdom, to confirm the faithful in Catholic doctrine, grant those who seek the truth, the joy of finding you and those who believe, perseverance in the faith .

PRAYER OF SAN PIETRO CANISIO

to SAN MICHELE ARCANGELO

Head of the celestial militia, winner of the rebel angels and powerful protector of the Church of God, or Saint Michael, through whom the divine power has deigned to perform and still performs many wonders, come to the aid of the people of God and procure the militant Church victory over impiety;

extend your protection upon us and defend us in life and in death against the assaults of the devil.

Most glorious prince, archangel St. Michael, remember us, and pray to the Son of God for us, here, everywhere and always.

Amen.
