Throughout the centuries, the Church has taught that the moment of death is a decisive spiritual battle, and that Saint Michael the Archangel has a special mission at that hour: to protect the soul, defend it from the snares of the enemy, and lead it to God. Prayers with Saint Michael in the Final Hour gathers this ancient Catholic devotion and presents it as a prayer aid filled with consolation, hope, and trust in divine mercy. Inspired by Christian tradition, popular piety, and the biblical foundation of Saint Michael as defender of the people of God, this book offers a collection of prayers for entrusting oneself to the archangel in the nearness of death. It also includes a prayer novena, devotional texts for asking protection in the final hour, and spaces for writing down personal intentions or those for loved ones. With a reverent and accessible tone, and accompanied by traditional and antique images of Saint Michael, this book can serve as spiritual support for personal prayer, as a comforting gift for family members, or as a devotional resource for preparing in a Christian way for the final passage.
