An invitation to the common prayer to the Archangel Raphael
Sometimes my flaws prevent me from achieving God’s grace, so I am asking to pray together to Archangel Raphael:Oh holy great archangel Raphael,
standing on the throne of the Lord!
Grace be given to you by the Almighty Healer of Soul and Body,
you rescued a righteous man Tobit from the body blindness
and accompanying his son Tobiah you protected from the evil spirit.
I pray sincerely, be the guide of my life,
protect me from all visible and invisible enemies,
cure diseases of my body and soul,
take my life to repentance
for sins and doing good works.
Oh holy great archangel Raphael!
Hear me sinful, praying to you,
and help to give thanks and worship in this and eternal life
our Creator forever and ever. Amen.
P.S. Some may ask, why don't I pray to Jesus instead?
Whell the answer is: (...)"when god does not hear you, then you must pray to saints"(...) angels or archangels. (The thought is from the homily of one priest guest.)
Thank you

Since now I've only knew him only as a patron of the families. But you broadened my horizons.
Thanks again.
Until now... Sorry.
