One positive response to the current moral crisis in our church was made by Bishop Caggiano, Diocese of Bridgeport (Connecticut), who mandated all priests in the diocese to pray the prayer to St. Michael the Archangel near the end of every Mass. Besides the very real intervention of St. Michael in our troubled church and world praying such prayer in community may help raise the conscious awareness that we are, and have been since the fall, in spiritual warfare with the person of Satan and his dominions. I pray that this mandate come to other dioceses, especially our own Archdiocese of San Francisco and surrounding dioceses of Oakland, Santa Rosa and Sacramento. Satan and sin are as real as our souls and this major battle calls all of us to go back to boot camp to reacquire the skills, weapons and resources for spiritual warfare before this battle claims more souls.
