http://www.saintmichaelusa.org/
The feast of the three archangels - Sts. Michael, Gabriel and Raphael- will be commemorated on September 29.
St. Michael whose name means "Who is like God" was the archangel who fought against Satan and all his evil angels, defending all the friends of God. He is the protector of all humanity from the snares of the devil. St. Gabriel which means "Strength of God" announced to Zachariah the forthcoming birth of John the Baptist, and to Mary, the birth of Jesus. His greeting to the Virgin, "Hail, full of grace," is one of the most familiar and frequent prayers of the Christian people. St Raphael meaning "Medicine of God" is the archangel who took care of Tobias on his journey.
