San Miguel Arcangel

Patillas, Puerto Rico
· [Michael the Archangel]
Faith
San Miguel is one of the seven archangels and is among the three archangels named in the Bible, along with Gabriel and Rafael. The holy church gives Saint Michael the highest place among the archangels and calls him "Prince of the Celebrant Spirits" and "Head of the Celestial Militia." In the Old Testament he serves as the great defender of the people of God against the demon, and his powerful defense continues in the New Testament. He appears as a warrior and conqueror of Lucifer, placing his heel on the head of the infernal enemy, threatening him with his sword, piercing him with his spear, or ready to chain him forever in the abyss of Hell.
