[Magdalen] Saint Michael and All Angels.

[ME Michaud]

There is an icon of St. Michael affixed to my door jamb.

Long ago I had a relative who had a statue of the BVM in her
living room. Whenever she left home, she'd pat the statue and
say "Take care of the house, dear."

I'm not that bad with St. Michael, but almost. Protection is
important to women living in the city.
