Devotionals
| As well
as prayer books, St.
Francis Books specializes in a limited selection of only the most beautiful,
traditional and practical devotionals. Some, such as statues and crucifixes, are
not advertised in our catalogue as they are in very limited supply.
Don't be like most people who wait until a situation is
desperate before turning to prayer. Like proper nutrition for the
body, prayer and devotions maintain spiritual health to help avoid these
problems or at least turn them to good. |
All
religious articles are tax extra where applicable.

Powerful prayer to ward off the influence of the
devil and the evil
spirits
Sublime Queen of
Heaven; exalted Lady of the Angels;
From the
beginning, God hast given thee the power
and the commission to crush the head of Satan.
Therefore, we
humbly beseech thee to send to our aid thy Heavenly Legions so that under
thy command and by thy power they may pursue the hellish spirits, fight them
everywhere, ward off their impudent attacks and fling them back into the
abyss.
Who is like God?
You holy angels and archangels, protect us and defend us.
Good, kind mother,
thou remainest always our love and our hope. Mother of God, send to us the
holy angels to defend us and keep the evil one far from us. Amen
(special
indulgence by Pope
St. Pius X) |
