Aquinas on Angels

Charles, King and Martyr

Charles, King and Martyr

O Lord we offer unto thee all praise and thanks for the glory of Thy grace that shined forth in Thine anointed servant Charles; and we beseech Thee to give us all grace that by a careful studious imitation of this Thy blessed Saint and Martyr, that we may be made worthy to receive benefit by his prayers, which he, in communion with the Church Catholic, offers up unto Thee for that part of it here Militant, through thy Son, our Blessed Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.

6:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.

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.
