Gracious God,
You created the angels to serve you in many ways. In heaven they offer you continuous praise. In your goodness you also charged them to act as messengers and protectors of your people here on Earth. Let us offer our prayers to your archangels – St. Michael, St. Gabriel, St. Raphael, and to our guardian angels whose names we do not know. We ask them to intercede with you on our behalf in our time of need, and to protect us in this world until we can join you in the next.
Amen.
