The word “angelus” is Latin for angel. The Angelus consists of three Hail Marys with short Bible verses in between, called versicles, ending with a prayer. Why three times a day? It’s a way for Catholics to make reverent the morning, noon, and evening. Harpa Dei is a lay singing group of three sisters and a brother, and the man ringing the bells is a server at Mass.

What a coincidence that you wrote about this today. Recently, I watched a talk by Fr. Ripperger about prayer life. He recommended praying the Angelus. I had not thought about this devotion for many years. Since I usually awake at 8:00 am, the 6am prayer has been an infinitesimally tiny penance. However, I wait to say the rest of my morning prayers until I am awake again and fully conscious, about an hour or two later, lol 11/17/2023 11:52:32 am
Great, Laura. The altarpiece in this chapel is beautiful. In the blog somewhere is the Mass being said in the chapel. Bob Leave a Reply. |
