House Blessing for Protection
These House Blessings include a Crucifix of St. Benedict, a large Miraculous Medal and a St. Michael the Arch Angel Medal. These items hang on a circular metal ring and are separated for better display with 4 metal beads. They attach to the ribbon with a lobster clasp.
Each House Blessing comes with a beautiful Black, Red or Blue ribbon. Perfect for placing on or near your front door.
These House Blessings have not been Blessed. I would suggest a Benedictine Blessing:
EXORCISM & BLESSING OF THE MEDAL OF ST. BENEDICT
Priest: Our help is in the name of the Lord.
Response: Who made heaven and earth.
Priest: In the name of God the Father + Almighty, Who made heaven and earth, the sea and all that is in them, I exorcise these medals against the power and attacks of the evil one. May all who use these medals devoutly be blessed with health of soul and body. In the name of the Father + Almighty, of His Son + Jesus Christ our Lord, and of the Holy + Spirit the Paraclete, and in the love of the same Lord Jesus Christ Who will come on the last day to judge the living and the dead.
Response: Amen.
Priest: Let us pray. Almighty God, the boundless Source of all good things, we humbly ask that, through the intercession of St. Benedict, Thou pourest out Thy blessings + upon these medals. May those who use them devoutly and earnestly strive to perform goods works be blessed by Thee with health of soul and body, the grace of a holy death, and remission of temporal punishment due to sin. May they also, with the help of Thy merciful love, resist the temptations of the evil one and strive to exercise true charity and justice toward all, so that one day they may appear sinless and holy in Thy sight. This we ask through Christ our Lord.
Response: Amen.
The medals are then sprinkled with holy water.
