Our Patron Saint - Saint Michael the Archangel
We place the Shrine of Our lady of La Salette under the protection of Saint Michael the Archangel. He has been especially honored and invoked as patron and protector by the Church from the time of the Apostles. Unfortunately, in these perilous times of apostasy in the Vatican II Church, Saint Michael has been virtually dethroned. They removed his statues and pictures and eliminated the Saint Michael prayer ordered by Pope Leo XIII to be said kneeling after the Celebration of the Mass, along with the Hail Mary prayers, Salve Regina, and other prayers. When Saint Michael, protector of the Church was removed from the Vatican II Church, he became unable to protect their Church? The result: The smoke of Satan entered and flourishes--BIG TIME! Well, here at the shrine of Our Lady of La Salette, we do not eliminate Saint Michael--we honor and invoke him to be our protector and defender.
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in the battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. O Prince of the heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
Devotion to the Seven Sorrows of Mary
The Blessed Virgin Mary grants seven graces to the souls who honor her daily by meditating on her tears and dolors (sorrows). This devotion was passed on by St. Bridget.
1. I will grant peace to their families.
2. They will be enlightened by the divine mysteries.
3. I will console them in their pains and I will accompany them in their work.
4. I will give them as much as they ask for as long as it does not oppose the adorable will of my divine Son or the sanctification of their souls.
5. I will defend them in the spiritual battles with the infernal enemy and I will protect them at every instant in their lives.
6. I will visibly help them at the moment of their death. They will see the face of their Mother.
7. I have obtained (This Grace) from my divine Son, that those who propagate this devotion to my tears and dolors, will be taken directly from this earthly life to eternal happiness since all their sins will be forgiven and my Son and I will be their eternal consolation and joy.
The Seven Sorrows
1. The prophecy of Simeon. (St. Luke 2:34-35)
2. The flight into Egypt. (St. Matthew 2:13-14)
3. The loss of the Child Jesus in the temple. (St. Luke 2:43-45)
4. The meeting of Jesus and Mary on the Way of the Cross.
5. The Crucifixion and Death of Jesus.
6. The taking down of the body of Jesus from the Cross.
7. The burial of Jesus.
Say one Hail Mary while meditating on each Sorrow.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou amongst women and blessed in the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the our of our death. Amen.
