St. Leo Church – Hartford issued the following announcement on Oct. 22.
Students in at least three Catholic schools in Arkansas model what it means to be a guardian angel, as role models for younger students.
At Immaculate Heart of Mary School in North Little Rock (Marche), the Guardian Angel program has been a tradition, with Mary Loyd, director of religious education, organizing the program for the past 17 years. The “mini angels” in pre-K through first grade students are matched with a “guardian angel” from fifth grade to eighth grade. The pairs work on projects, attend school Masses and learn about their faith together as a way to welcome new students. During the special Guardian Angel Mass where they receive guardian angel pins, this year on Oct. 8, the guardian angel writes about their mini angel and introduces them to the congregation.
