His role as a warrior and guardian makes him a natural patron for those in law enforcement, the military, and all who put themselves in harm's way to protect others. Pope Leo XIII's famous prayer to St. Michael has long been associated with spiritual protection in dangerous vocations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this medal appropriate for women as well as men?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. While ideally sized for a man, women who prefer a larger, more substantial medal will find this piece equally wearable. The shield shape and silver-tone finish are classic and versatile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does the prayer card say?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front of the card features a full-color image of St. Michael the Archangel slaying the devil. The back carries the Police Officer's Prayer to St. Michael — a beloved prayer asking for cool heads, wise judgment, and protection in the line of duty, ending with a petition to one day guard the throne of God as faithfully as they guarded their city.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this a good gift for a police officer, deputy, or federal agent?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. This set is one of the most meaningful gifts you can give to a law enforcement officer of any faith — for graduation from the academy, a promotion, a retirement, Christmas, or simply as a token of gratitude and prayer for their safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the medal suitable for everyday wear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The non-tarnishing pewter holds its silver-tone finish well under daily wear, and the 24\" curb chain with clasp is durable and easy to use. Simply wipe clean with a soft cloth as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top:24px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Police Officer's Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eSaint Michael, heaven's glorious commissioner of police, who once so neatly and successfully cleared God's premises of all its undesirables, look with kindly and professional eyes on your earthly force.
