Angel Day September 19th men's. Did you know that

On September 19, Orthodox Christians celebrate a great holiday, remembering the miracle of St. Archangel Michael.

However, the patron saint of this day is also Reverend David, who from an evil robber turned into a monk and, having repented, was awarded the honor of performing miracles, as the Archangel Gabriel himself informed him about.

Also on this day they remember the holy martyrs Cyriacus, Faustus and Aviv, who died for their faith.

September 19 is also the day of remembrance of the Hieromartyr Cyril, who was also the Bishop of Gortyn. His fate was unusual, he lived until he was 95 years old, but was also executed for his faith.

The holy martyr Romilus could not avoid the sad fate of the first Christians, but he was not afraid to go against the king, reproaching him for recklessness and godlessness, although he was a simple military leader.

Birthday people named after saints are believed to adopt their virtues, which is why it is so important to know the history of these great people.

If you want to choose something unusual for boys born in 2020, old name, you can call them Arkhip or Vsevolod, as well as David or Makar.

The choice of names for girls is small: there is only one option - Thekla.

Those who celebrate Angel Day today should take a closer look at the lives of the saints who are their patrons. Particularly interesting is the story of the Michael Miracle, which was performed by the Archangel Michael.

Archangel Michael is one of the most revered saints, being the protector of all the weak and disadvantaged.

In addition, he is a strict judge who meets the souls of the dead after death.

He weighs on the scales all the good and evil deeds that were committed by people during their lifetime.

Once upon a time in the city of Hierapolis, one believer decided to build a temple in honor of this saint, since he appeared to him in a dream and promised healing to his dumb daughter if she drank water from a source.

The dream turned out to be prophetic. The whole family of the healed girl was baptized and built a temple. However, the opponents of the faith did not like this, and they decided to destroy it by flooding the entire valley.

The righteous man prayed to his saint, and he instantly found himself near the temple and saved him. A name day on the day of such a holy holiday is an auspicious sign.
