" . . . Because of the feasts of St. Michael and the archangels at the end of September, and the celebration of the Guardian Angels at the beginning of October, the autumn season has always been regarded as a time to remember angels, spirits, and the afterlife. . . .
"In the Christian tradition, many churches have observed this time of year as a 'Season of Creation.' Ten years ago, the Vatican began to observe this period from September 1 to October 4 (the feast of St. Francis of Assisi). This is an opportunity to pray, reflect, commit, and care for all creation as we live out our relationship with God and His earth. Certainly, angels are part of God's care for our world."
In a recent commentary, Father Jack Kolodziej, OSFS, reflected on the importance of becoming familiar with angels and striving to be angels.
