From the Pastor - 'The Holy Angels'

A weekly column by Father George Rutler.


Many babies are being baptized here in this month dedicated to the Holy Angels. Infants have not had time for the world to weary them into boredom, and so human faces are as fascinating to them as angel faces, and a candle is as astonishing as lightning. By their childlike gift of wonder, saints avoid the childishness of cynics, who contradict themselves by wondering why anything should be wonderful.
