Dedicated to Saint Michael , commander of the heavenly hosts.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
O glorious prince St. Michael,
chief and commander of the heavenly hosts, guardian of souls, vanquisher of rebel spirits,
servant in the house of the Divine King
and our admirable conductor,
you who shine with excellence
and superhuman virtue deliver us from all evil,
who turn to you with confidence
and enable us by your gracious protection
to serve God more and more faithfully every day.
Amen
You’re living in a world that’s loud, chaotic, and confusing. Social media, influencers, ads, schools, even the government—they’re all screaming at you, telling you what to think, what to buy, what to fear. It’s a nonstop barrage of noise, and it’s leaving you lost. Pope Benedict XVI called the times we’re in “the dictatorship of moral relativism”—a world where truth is whatever you feel it is. No wonder you’re struggling. The stats don’t lie: 57% of teen girls feel persistently sad or hopeless, 40% of teens can’t function normally because of depression, and 30% of teen girls have seriously considered suicide, a number up 60% in a decade. LGBTQIA+ teens? 52% battle mental health, and 22% have tried to end their lives.[2] And let’s not kid ourselves—almost every guy you know has been exposed to hardcore porn, robbing their innocence and moral compass. Suicide and overdoses are stealing too many of you. As Henry David Thoreau put it, “The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.”
But here’s the thing: you’re not alone, and you’re not doomed. I’ve seen it myself—young men like you waking up, realizing something’s gone wrong.
