Meaning of Design

St Michael : is generally presented as the field commander of the Army of God. Michael is one of the principal angels in Abrahamic tradition; his name was said to have been the War-cry of the angels in the battle fought in heaven against Satan and his followers. Holy Scripture describes St. Michael as "one of the chief princes," and leader of the forces of heaven in their triumph over the powers of hell. He has been especially honored and invoked as patron and protector by the Church from the time of the Apostles. Traditionally, he is the patron saint of the police and army.
