St. Michael's Lent

By Rev Scott A. Haynes

This new publication by Father Scott Haynes gives a history of Saint Michael's Lent, a forty day preparation for the Feast of Saint Michael the Archangel. Readers will enjoy praying traditional devotional prayers by Saint Francis of Assisi and Saint Bonaventure composed for Saint Michael's Lent as well as short mediations and prayers for each day of this spiritual journey.

Saint Michael's Lent traces its origins to the life and example of Saint Francis of Assisi, one of the most beloved saints in Christian history. Saint Francis chose this period between the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Feast of Saint Michael the Archangel as a time of preparation and spiritual warfare, seeking the protection of the prince of the heavenly hosts.

"We ought to invoke in a very special manner the glorious Saint Michael, as the Prince of all the heavenly spirits, because of his sublime dignity, his pre-eminent office and his invincible power, which he proved in his conflict with Satan, as well as against the combined forces of Hell." (Saint Lawrence Justinian)
