Walking With The Father: Guardian Angels (Matthew 18 1-5 10) Oct 2nd homily

October 6, 2019

Today the Church celebrates Guardian Angels. Each person has an angel always by their side, helping them to get to God. Some find it difficult to believe in angels, but we hear about them in the Bible. Father Matthew describes many examples. The angels who are with us, simultaneously see the face of God. St. Jerome said, "How great is the dignity of the soul, since each one has, from its birth, an angel commissioned to guard it."
