Feast Day of Sts Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael

29 09 2008

Since this is a feast day for angels I have posted two of my photos from the most angel filled city Ive ever been to.  Rome.  The Pont San Angelo angels each hold an instrument of Christ`s passion such as the crown of thorns pictured above.  The large building is Castel San Angelo with St Michael on top.

Article on the three angels we remember in particular this day.

To mark the day the Pope said

Although angels are not visible, their presence “brings us great help and consolation: they walk at our side and protect us in all circumstances, they defend us from danger, and to them we can turn at any moment,” Benedict XVI explained.
