--------------------------------------------------------What are angels?
An angel is a pure spirit created by God. The
English word "angel" comes from the Greek
angelos, which means 'messenger'. Although the
word "angel" in the Bible, meaning a messenger,
nearly always applies to heavenly beings, it can
occasionally apply to human messengers.
The Scriptures give us no indication of the precise
time of the creation of angels; their existence is
assumed at the earliest times. God bestowed
upon angels great wisdom, freedom, and power,
and their many appearances in the New
Testament are indication of the lead role assigned
to them. Angels are purely spiritual or bodiless

Mother Teresa 100th Birthday (August 26, 1910)
“By blood, I am Albanian. By citizenship, an
Indian. By faith, I am a Catholic nun,” Mother
Teresa once said. “As to my calling, I belong to
the world. As to my heart, I belong entirely to the
Heart of Jesus.”
Prayer to Blessed Teresa of Calcutta
Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, you allowed the
thirsting love of Jesus on the cross to become a
living flame within you, and so became the light of
his love to all. Obtain from the heart of Jesus(here
make your request). Teach me to allow Jesus to
penetrate and possess my whole being so
completely that my life, too, may radiate His light
and love to others. Amen.
Immaculate Heart of Mary,
Cause of Our Joy, pray for me.
Blessed Teresa of Calcutta,
Pray for me.

Cell Funding, Urge Government to Pursue Ethical
Stem Cell Research
WASHINGTON—Cardinal Daniel DiNardo of
Galveston-Houston, chairman of the Committee on
Pro-Life Activities of the United States Conference of
Catholic Bishops, welcomed the federal court
injunction against the Obama administration’s funding
of human embryonic stem cell research, calling the
ruling a “victory for common sense and sound medical
ethics.” He said this ruling also vindicates the bishops’
reading of the Dickey amendment, the amendment
approved by Congress since 1996, which prevents
federal funding of research in which human embryos
are harmed or destroyed.
