The title of this blog sounds more like a Muslim theme than something dedicated to renewing a long-standing Catholic tradition. In part, it is inspired by the fact that, yes, faithful Muslims put everything on hold five times a day to call to mind and to proclaim the central beliefs of their religion. Many Catholics have retained the tradition of praying the Angelus three times a day (morning, noon and evening), but for the most part it is a lost art.
This blog is at the service of a renewal of the practice of the Angelus by Catholics and other Christians. We all confess Jesus, born of the Virgin, as Lord and Savior: Let us proclaim and renew our faith, and invite others to do so, too.
Please limit comments to ideas and success stories about promoting the Angelus or Regina Coeli in your Church group or locale.
About the Angelus Project
We rightly admire Muslim neighbors and co-workers who put everything on hold five times a day in answer to the "call to prayer." But Christians have a call to prayer, too! It is the Angelus. Morning, noon and evening we are invited to pause and reaffirm our faith in the Incarnation: The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us (Jn. 1:14), because "God so loved the world that he sent his only Son" (Jn. 3:16).
