Guardian Angels

GUARDIAN ANGELS

BASIC R.C. BELIEF Although not an article of faith, the general idea is that everyone is given a Guardian Angel as a child, and retains his services throughout life. Some theologians limit this privilege to Catholics; many regard it as universal. While they can interfere in physical needs and dangers, their most common work is to guard the soul by parrying satanic thrusts and giving good thoughts to replace temptation.

October is dedicated to “Holy Guardian Angels.”
