On Wednesdays, from January 9 through February 6, Fr Austin leads a reading group working through what Aquinas says about angels in the Summa Theologiae, starting with Part One, Question 50. You can find Aquinas’s first question on angels here. (This is a convenient website for the Summa, but I am not suggesting the purchase of their CD rom. The translation is in the public domain.)

No need for particular preparation; we’ll just work through Aquinas slowly and see how far we get. Even just a little Aquinas can be greatly illuminating.
