Procession in honor of St. Michael the Archangel

From the Shrine of St. Michael the Archangel in Italy. A very rare event!
The Sword of St. Michael was brought out to bless the world which has not happened since 1656 during the plague.
A powerful moment of grace with the Eucharistic Benediction of the City and the World and the Sword of St. Michael.

Novena - Oremus It is a post from an SSPX Catholic. Sorry, it looks after the search that this is an old one - 6 April 2020 /covid/. Here is a Google Translate from an Italian news, 'Diventa Reporter' - "On April 6, the sword of Saint Michael the Archangel was carried in procession in Monte Sant'Angelo. An important event, since the sword only leaves the Basilica on St. Michael's Day, September 29th, during the procession in honor of the Saint. The sword came out of the Basilica of San Michele, for an intercession procession, even as far back as 1656 on the occasion of the plague.
Following that procession, the plague epidemic ceased and a monument to San Michele was erected as a sign of gratitude. The column with the statue of San Michele Arcangelo was commissioned by Archbishop Alfonso Puccinelli." Once again, sorry. Where? - "The Sanctuary of Saint Michael the Archangel (Italian: Santuario di San Michele Arcangelo) is a Roman Catholic shrine on Mount Gargano, Italy, part of the commune of Monte Sant'Angelo, in the province of Foggia, northern Apulia. It has the dignity of a minor basilica."
