For your protection and that of your family
Have you heard of the promises of St. Michael to whom he prays daily his rosary? In an apparition to the Servant of God Antônia d’Astonoac in Portugal, the archangel declared that he wished that there be nine salutations corresponding to the nine choirs of angels, which would consist of the prayer of one Our Father and three Hail Marys in honor of each one. of those choirs.
In return for the one who rendered him this cult, he promised a procession of nine angels during the whole course of his life whenever he approached the Eucharistic table, and after death the liberation of purgatory for that person and his relatives.
Devotion crossed borders, was approved by many bishops and even by the holy Pope Pius IX, who enriched it with indulgences on August 8, 1851.
This rosary will be a powerful weapon for you, because from the moment you utter it you can be sure of the heavenly presence at your side and for that person for whom you pray.
