  4. We get to put our priorities in order once again.
  5. We get to pray in the highest form of prayer there is – The Mass.
  6. We get to stand out from the crowd and proclaim to the world our faith.
  7. We get the opportunity to share the faith with a friend who is non-Catholic and may not understand why we do such things.

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.  May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
