Praying the Angelus with Art: This Week's Image

The Annunciation appears within the illuminated letter R on this manuscript page (from the Morgan Library and Museum). The text and chant notation is from the Advent antiphon, Rorate coeli: "Drop down dew from above, you heavens and let the clouds rain the Just One. Let the earth be opened and salvation bud forth."

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.
