Happy feast day!

It's a feast day worth celebrating ... three times over!

St. Michael -- the one who is always at work protecting us in our numerous spiritual battles.  

St. Gabriel -- the bearer of good news -- the Incarnation! -- and the one to whom we can turn in our desire for good communication (whether personal or on a mass media level).

St. Raphael -- known for leading singles to their future spouse and interceding for healing.

The three archangels that we celebrate today aren't just fluffy angels floating with their cherubic wings.  They are warriors for each of us in  various aspects of our lives, with the goal of assisting us all on our journey to heaven.

Happy feast!  (And I don't think it's coincidental for the feasting department, that today is also National Coffee Day.)
