Commemoration of Archangel Michael

Commemoration of Archangel Michael
On this day, the church celebrates the commemoration of the angel Michael, the Archangel, the intercessor of the human race. The one who appeared to Joshua the son of Nun, encouraged him, and told him, Nay, but as captain of the hosts of the Lord am I now come. He made the city of Jericho to fall into his hands, and he stopped the sun for him.
May his intercession be with us. Amen.
