Catholics find great comfort in the belief that guardian angels are always by our side, protecting us and guiding us throughout life. 
These angels aren’t just for children—they watch over everyone, presenting our prayers to God and being with us even at the moment of death. From the early monastic tradition to the teachings of saints like Benedict and Bernard, devotion to the guardian angels has grown through the centuries. 
In 1615, Pope Paul V added the feast of the guardian angels to the Roman calendar, reminding us of God’s unfailing love and protection every day.
