Each of us received from God, for his immense gift of love, a Guardian Angel to be protected and guided in the journey of life. In Sacred Scripture we often find the presence of Angels as faithful "messengers of God" sent by him to bring an announcement or to help his children in danger and guide them to a holy life appreciated by him. The Saints have always been very attentive to the presence of the Guardian Angel and prayed to him frequently, receiving great benefits. We too want to invoke them more often, to open ourselves more to the light of God.
This chaplet wants to be a simple help in this aim.
A common rosary crown is used.
O God, come save me.
O Lord, make haste to help me.
Glory to the Father ...
On the "big" grains, the following prayer is said to St. Michael the Archangel:
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in the struggle. Be our support, against the pitfalls and treachery of the devil, we beg you to beg of them. And You, o Prince of the Celestial Militia, with the power that comes to you from God, shackles Satan and the other evil spirits, who roam the world to perdition of souls.
On the "small" grains, the Angel of God is recited 10 times:
Angel of God, who are my keeper,
enlighten, guard, hold and rule me
that I was entrusted to you by heavenly piety. Amen
In the end it is said three times:
San Gabriele, with Maria,
San Raffaele, with Tobia,
St Michael, with the heavenly hierarchy, guide us along the way.
It ends with the prayer of entrustment to St. Michael the Archangel
St. Michael the Archangel, protect me in difficulties and defend me in danger, obtain the gift of the Holy Spirit so that I can grow every day in the virtues of faith, hope and charity, prudence, justice, fortitude and temperance; teach me to love God above all things and your neighbor as myself and to do God's will every day, to become a faithful disciple and apostle of Jesus, the only Savior and Master.
St. Michael the Archangel, defend me in the struggle, to be eternally saved.
