Did you know that for centuries, the entire Western world stopped exactly what they were doing three times a day to pray?
When you hear old church bells chime at noon, you are hearing the echo of a tradition that once unified kings and peasants alike. This is the call to the Angelus.
At 6:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and 6:00 PM, the bell would ring, and everyone, farmers in the field, merchants in the shop, and mothers in the home, would stop, kneel, and pray.
They were commemorating the moment the Angel Gabriel visited Mary and the "Word became Flesh."
This practice ensures that no matter how busy life became, the Incarnation remained the center of the day. Works comes second to Faith.
It was little things like this that made our countries Holy.
Why not give it a try? Set up an alarm for 6am, 12pm and 6pm and pray!
The Regina Caeli substitutes the Angelus during the entire Easter season, which lasts for 50 days. This substitutioncontinues until the end of Pentecost Sunday!
