DEVOTION TO THE HOLY ANGELS
— Henri-Marie Boudon
God has not left us alone on the road to eternity. From the moment of our creation, He has given us powerful companions — the holy angels — to guard us, guide us, and defend us against temptation and spiritual harm. They are our unseen friends, tireless intercessors, and faithful allies in the struggle for sanctity.
In this luminous spiritual classic, Fr. Henri-Marie Boudon, one of the Church’s most gifted spiritual teachers, draws back the veil on the world of the angels. With clarity, reverence, and profound insight, he reveals why devotion to the angels is not optional ornamentation in the spiritual life but a vital source of strength, protection, and peace.
Boudon shows how the angels accompany us at every moment, encouraging virtue, restraining evil, and leading us ever closer to God. Through rich metaphors, Scripture, and the wisdom of the saints, he awakens gratitude and love for these heavenly guardians who labor ceaselessly for our salvation.
