Project BLACK MAMBA: Michaelmas
'Tis the Feast of Saints Michael, Gabriel, & Raphael, Archangels: Archangels-link & Wikipedia-link Michaelmas, Archangel-link Mike & Wikipedia-link Mike, Archangel-link Golf & Wikipedia-link Golf, & Archangel-link Romeo & Wikipedia-link Romeo.
Commentary: Wayback Machine. I confess to disappointment that the Holy Family bulletin has naught to say about the archangels. Please use the Wayback Machine to access past commentaries.
'Tis also the feast of Blessed Richard Rolle, Hermit (circa 1300-1349, A.K.A. de Hampole): Blessed-link ūnus, Blessed-link duo, & Wikipedia-link.
