Our Class Saint
Our class is named after St. Michael the Archangel and warrior saint. St.Michael helps us to make the right choices. He helps us when we have to make a hard decision or when we are tempted to do wrong. St. Michael is a protector and defender of the Church. He is there to protect us- physically, emotionally, or spiritually - he is at our side.
