Praying the Angelus with Art: This Week's Image

You can find the most outstanding works of 13th century artist Pietro Cavallini right where he put them in the 13th century: in the churches of Rome (and elsewhere!). This Annunciation is in the splendid church of Santa Maria in Trastevere in the charming neighborhood "across the Tiber" where you care always sure to find a good meal, and where the Community of Sant' Egidio has their headquarters.

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.
