Monday's Challenge: Pray

I am sorry that I have been absent for the last week.  My crazy schedule has taken over and has severely cut into my computer time.  I hope that everyone has been following along on the calendar. 

Lent is almost over, and our challenges are soon to end.  Have you had a fruitful Lent?  It is not to late.  The culmination of the season happens next week and as that is spring break for our kids it will be an interesting week for Holy Week.

The challenge for today is to say the St. Michael Prayer for peace and the eradication of evil.  The prayer is as follows:

Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle;
be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray:
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits
who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen


This is my most favorite prayer and one that I find myself saying throughout the day.  I love the though of St. Michael watching over us and doing battle for us.

Have a happy Monday!
