"Most of us have sentimental notions
about angels in general and guardian angels in particular, yet the Bible
depicts then as powerful, fierce, and almost warlike. They are holy and

"Angels are to be revered and respected; they are not the prancing, doll-like figures we often imagine."
In a recent commentary, Monsignor Charles Pope (pastor of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Parish,
Washington, DC) reflected on the role of our guardian angels in our lives.
