Does every human being have a guardian angel?

Yes, every human being, whoever was, is, or will be, has a guardian angel. The existence of angels is a dogma of Faith, and the existence of guardian angels is clear from holy scripture and tradition; but whether or not every human being is given a guardian angel is a question that lies in the realm of opinion. Almost all the saints and doctors affirmed it, but a few of the early fathers believed that only the baptized are given a guardian angel. Saint Thomas affirmed that every man receives a guardian angel in his Summa Theologica (First Part, Question 113) and he provides irrefutable arguments why this must be so. It was the common teaching in his time and no doctor every questioned it since the thirteenth century. Therefore, if we look to the ordinary teaching of the Church, it would be rash and certainly offensive to pious ears to deny it.

Why is every man given a guardian angel?

Because God wills the salvation of all men. And all men need and receive sufficient grace to be saved. The guardian angel cannot force his trust to cooperate with grace, otherwise the will would not be free, but he acts as a channel of actual grace, working with God’s providential designs, to bring the person he is guarding in contact with outside occasions of grace: good Catholics, religious and lay, good books, a good teacher, good words and examples. The more a man cooperates with grace the more graces he will receive. Guardian angels also have the power to help our imagination in meditation. Since the imagination is one of our inner senses the angel can actually place holy images in the mind, especially if we ask their assistance. If demons can place impure images in someone’s imagination, in their attempts to lure one into willful consent, then good angels can place holy images in the mind to move one to acts of love and virtue. Likewise, good angels can prevent demons from assaulting our imagination by guarding our minds. “Ever this night (and day) be at my side to light and guard, to rule and guide.” The conversion of a sinner gives great joy to their guardian angel, indeed to all the angels. Remember Our Lord’s parable about the woman who lost one of her ten coins, and how she swept her house in order to find it. When she found it, how great was her joy! Our Lord then gives the meaning of the parable, equating the lost coin to a sinner, whose “finding” is a conversion, and the joy of the woman is that of the angels: “There shall be more joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance” (Luke 15:10).

What does the guardian angel do after his charge has died?

After death the guardian angel’s work of guarding is over. However, they do still have intercessory “work” to do if their charge is in purgatory. They carry the prayers of the suffering souls to heaven and continue to act as an advocate. They give comfort and solace to the souls in purgatory. Remember, too, that their work as advocate is most intense at the hour of death. The guardian angels of those who die in grace work to procure a peaceful death and ward off the demons from any final assault. Or, if God permits a final temptation, to increase the merit of the just, the guardian angels assist in the battle. Of those who face the last hour in sin, the guardian angels work by infusing holy images or providing a last occasion of grace by the exhortations of a good friend, or relative, nurse, or chaplain. It is only after the soul that was entrusted to them is in eternal beatitude that the “work” of the angel guardian is over. After this, the guardian angel rests for all eternity in the joy of the Lord. And they also have a special accidental joy if the soul they guarded is in heaven with them. If we are saved, our guardian angels will always thank God for our salvation. The guardian angel never loses the beatific vision of God even while on their earthly assignment. They are always “in heaven” as far as the state of eternal bliss, even when they are not in the “place” of heaven. Don’t forget that heaven is also a place, the physical beauty of which is beyond our imagination.

Dear Mary Star of the Sea Parishioners: This week we celebrate the feast of The Guardian Angels, Those who God has given to us to guide and guard all the days of our lives. They are our truest and most loyal friends and we should foster a relationship with them. Let us remember that they are with us always to help us and to protect us in all our needs. Below are some common questions and answers regarding the Guardian Angels.

Have a Blessed Week. Fr. Harrigan Pastor

The Parable of the Two Sons 28 “But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, ‘Son, go, work today in my vineyard.’ 29 He answered and said, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he regretted it and went. 30 Then he came to the second and said likewise. And he answered and said, ‘I go, sir,’ but he did not go. 31 Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said to Him, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you that tax collectors and harlots enter the kingdom of God before you. 32 For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him; but tax collectors and harlots believed him; and when you saw it, you did not afterward [a]relent and believe him.” References Bible Gateway.

We pray that the planet's resources will not be

plundered, but shared in a just and respectful manner. Today, not tomorrow; today, we have to take care of Creation responsibly. Let us pray that the planet’s resources will not be plundered, but shared in a just and respectful manner. No to plundering; yes to sharing.

September 26-27 DID YOU KNOW? Words can be warning signs of abuse Many children will be learning in their own homes this fall, but that does not mean they will be fully protected from abuse. Sadly, most children are abused by someone considered to be a “known and trusted” person – that person may be a family member – even someone living in the same house as the child. Pay attention to the conversations your children are having, as words can be indicators that a child is being groomed or harmed. If your child or their friend(s) seem to “know” more about sexual topics than would be expected for their age, or seems unusually focused on such topics, it could be an indicator that something inappropriate and harmful is happening. Talk to your child about it, reassuring them that it is both important and safe to tell you what is happening. For more information on this topic, visit https://lacatholics.org/did-you-know/.

Las palabras pueden ser señales de alerta de abuso Muchos niños estarán aprendiendo desde sus propios hogares este otoño, pero eso no significa que estarán completamente protegidos de abuso. Lamentablemente, la mayoría de los niños son abusados por alguien que se considera una persona “conocida y de confianza”, que pudiera ser un miembro de la familia, y que hasta puede vivir en la misma casa que el niño o niña. Preste atención a las conversaciones de sus hijos, ya que las palabras pueden ser indicadores de que un niño está siendo abusado o dañado sexualmente. Si su hijo/a o sus amigos parecen “saber” más sobre temas sexuales de lo que se espera para su edad, o parecen inusualmente enfocados en esos temas, esto puede ser indicador de que algo inapropiado o dañino está sucediendo. Hable con sus hijos sobre estos temas, asegurándoles que es importante y seguro que ellos le digan lo que está sucediendo. Para obtener más información sobre este tema, visite https://lacatholics.org/did-you-know/.

CLASSES HAVE BEGUN The Religious Education classes began on Wednesday, September 23 and on Saturday September 26. We are excited to be beginning another year to journey with the children and parents as they deep their relationship with Jesus. Children will be prepared for First Communion and unbaptized adults and children older than seven years will be prepared for sacraments of initiation.

Are you an adult who has never been baptized or was baptized in another faith tradition? Are you a baptized Catholic who has lapsed from the practice of your faith? Are you a baptized Catholic who has never received your first communion and/or confirmation? Do you have an older child who was never baptized?

Each of these situations are unique and different but they something in common: they all describe a personal journey and a desire to come closer to Jesus and to the Church. RECYCLING: Thank you to all who help us to recycle so that we can purchase resources for the children.

If you need further information on any of the above programs please call Sister Mary 310-833-3541, ext. 222.

Welcome to the Christian World! May the grace of God be upon them on this

special Day.

Prayer in the Time of the Coronavirus Covid-19: A prayer to Our Lady of Guadalupe in times of trial

By Archbishop Gomez Holy Virgin of Guadalupe, Queen of the Angels and Mother of the Americas, We fly to you today as your beloved children. We ask you to intercede for us with your Son, as you did at the wedding in Cana.

Pray for us, loving Mother, and gain for our nation and world, and for all our families and loved ones, the protection of your holy angels, that we may be spared the worst of this illness.

For those already afflicted, we ask you to obtain the grace of healing and deliverance. Hear the cries of those who are vulnerable and fearful, wipe away their tears and help them to trust.

In this time of trial and testing, teach all of us in the Church to love one another and to be patient and kind. Help us to bring the peace of Jesus to our land and to our hearts.

We come to you with confidence, knowing that you truly are our compassionate Mother, health of the sick and cause of our joy. Shelter us under the mantle of your protection, keep us in the embrace of your arms, help us always to know the love of your Son, Jesus. Amen.
