Another call to promote the Angelus

As the Easter season reaches its culmination in the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, we pray our final "Regina Coeli" of the season and begin again with the thrice-daily Angelus.

A post in the National Catholic Reporter encourages the prayer of the Angelus from a social-justice perspective.

In the image: the Archangel Gabriel is all that remains of an ancient Annunciation fresco in Santa Maria Antiqua in the Roman Forum.

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).
The Angelus Project is a personal project of Sister Anne Flanagan, FSP, a Daughter of St Paul. Find out more about the media ministry of the Daughters of St Paul at DaughtersofStPaul.com.
