FEAST OF THE GURADIAN ANGEL

OK I'm a little late! The feast of the Guardian Angels is almost over! My friend Jane emailed me to remind me it's the feast day of our angels..............we all have one! How exciting! I've been talking more to mine and asking for help........hey we all need help. Remember this prayer:

Angel of God,my guardian dear,to whom God’s love commits me here,ever this day,be at my sideto light and guard,to rule and guide.

This is what the Pope said:

Today marks the Feast of the Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, the Pope pointed out to Bishop Marcello Semeraro of Albano (the diocese in which Castelgandolfo is located) and the assembled crowd. With this Feast in mind, he prayed, "let us trustingly invoke their help, and the protection of the Guardian Angels, whose feast we will celebrate in a few day's time, on October 2."
Although angels are not visible, their presence "brings us great help and consolation: they walk at our side and protect us in all circumstances, they defend us from danger, and to them we can turn at any moment," Benedict XVI explained.
He further added that, "Many saints established bonds of real friendship with the angels, and numerous episodes testify to their assistance on particular occasions. Angels are sent by God 'to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation' as the Letter to the Hebrews says, hence they are a real help to us on the pilgrimage towards the heavenly homeland."
