“Glorious Archangel St. Raphael the Divine Healer - Painting by Dino Carbetta” …

Saint Raphael's name shines as the "Divine Healer." Amid the celestial hierarchy, he stands as the least recognized among the three archangels, a figure gracing the pages of the Old Testament. In contrast, Gabriel and Michael take center stage in the New Testament. St. Raphael unfolds within the pages of the Book of Tobit, where he reveals his divine purpose as a healer of mind, body, and spirit. Tobit is a righteous Jewish man who undertakes the sacred act of burying the deceased, leading to his blindness. St. Raphael emerges as the guiding light of healing, embarking on a journey with Tobit's son, Tobias, in search of a unique fish liver possessing miraculous curative properties. Disguised as Tobias' faithful travel companion, Raphael weaves his presence into the tradition of pilgrims. The duo stops at the home of Tobit's kinsmen, where Tobias and Sarah fall in love. On their wedding night, Tobias' pledge of chaste love, kindled by Raphael's angelic power, conquers the malevolent forces of darkness. Returning, Tobias gently lays the fish liver upon Tobit's eyes, restoring his sight. St. Raphael's earthly mission reverberates with the divine purpose of healing, a beacon of hope for those grappling with suffering in its many forms. An inspiring prayer, invoking the “Glorious Archangel St. Raphael, great prince of the heavenly court, you are illustrious for your gifts of wisdom and grace. You are a guide of those who journey by land, sea, or air, consoler of the afflicted, and refuge of sinners. I beg you, assist me in all my needs and in all the sufferings of this life, as once you helped the young Tobias on his travels. Because you are the “medicine of God” I humbly pray to you to heal the many infirmities of my soul and the ills that afflict my body. I especially ask of you the favor (intention), and the great grace of purity to prepare me to be the temple of the Holy Spirit.”
