Novena to the Holy Archangels

Opening prayer:

Holy Archangels Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael, who stand before the throne of God and carry out His commands, come to my aid in this novena. Defend me, enlighten me, and lead me safely on the way to heaven. Amen.

Read the meditation and offer the intention of the day.

Day 9: The angelic ministry

Together the Archangels reveal a God who stoops to guard, instruct, and heal His children through His unseen servants. They invite us to join their ceaseless worship and to trust that heaven is near to us in every need. Michael defends, Gabriel announces, Raphael heals, and all three lead us back to the one Lord they adore, whose feast the Church keeps on September the twenty-ninth in joyful thanksgiving.

O holy Archangels Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael, who stand before the throne of God, defend, enlighten, and heal me by your intercession. Draw me into your unceasing worship of the Most High, and lead me at last to the heaven where you behold His face forever. Amen.

Today's intention:

For the grace to live aware of God's protecting hand through His angels.

Pray one Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.

Our Father

Our Father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come.

Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Pater noster, qui es in cælis,

sanctificétur nomen tuum.

Advéniat regnum tuum.

Fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cælo et in terra.

Panem nostrum quotidiánum da nobis hódie,

et dimítte nobis débita nostra,

sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris.

Et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem,

sed líbera nos a malo.

Amen.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed art thou amongst women,

and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God,

pray for us sinners,

now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

Ave María, grátia plena, Dóminus tecum.

Benedícta tu in muliéribus,

et benedíctus fructus ventris tui, Iesus.

Sancta María, Mater Dei,

ora pro nobis peccatóribus,

nunc et in hora mortis nostræ.

Amen.

Glory Be

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,

world without end.

Amen.

Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto.

Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper,

et in sǽcula sæculórum.

Amen.

Closing prayer:

Glorious Archangels, faithful servants of the Most High, present my prayers before God and obtain for me the grace I seek. May your protection accompany me until I join you in praising Him forever. Amen.
