WAVERLY (SNR) – Our Lady of Good Counsel Retreat House in Waverly will host a four-day retreat Sept. 8-11 on the "Work of the Holy Angels."

The retreat, with Opus Sanctorum Angelorum, will lead the faithful to a more conscious collaboration with the holy angels in daily life.

Opus Sanctorum Angelorum, the Work of the Holy Angels, is an international movement within the Catholic Church faithful to the Magisterium. Its mission is to promote devotion to the holy angels, so that the holy angels may lead all more effectively to God.

“In today’s world we are in battle with evil forces and need to be aware more and more of our guardian angels and all the choir of angels that are with us every day,” said Father William Wagner, ORC.

Father Wagner and Father John Brohl, priests from the Order of Canons Regular of the Holy Cross will offer prayer, conferences and spiritual guidance during the silent retreat.
