Praying the Regina Coeli with Art

In this illumination from the early 1400's, the Coronation of Mary is a muted affair between Mother and Son, taking place in a private alcove with only two peeking angels as witnesses.

We have been praying the Regina Coeli (with the help of images of the Coronation) throughout the Easter Season. After Pentecost (Sunday), we will resume the prayer of the Angelus morning, noon and evening, along with weekly images of the Annunciation.

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.
