St. Michael & All Angels

I suppose it will take the entire heavenly host to get the US out of its financial mess. I wonder what happened to the guardian angels in Congress! Michaelmas for many centuries has been a traditional day for a special blessing for children. I never knew that! Michaelmas flowers are white daisies - one of my favorites! The feast of St. Michael and All Angels is the day when Germans celebrate freedom of religion - or more accurately, freedom to worship in the church of your choice. This spilled over into American culture during the 18th and 19th centuries when the majority of immigrants were Germanic. I find it interesting that the concept of angels was actually imported into Christianity from Judaism but there is no official "doctrine" about angels in either religion. Yet, if you do a Google search, you'll find lots of churches named for St. Michael and the gang. There was a recent secular phenomenon some years back when there was a resurgent interest in all things related to angels, especially art. OK, so where do the angels go when Congress meets? Who knew they could pick and choose where they might exert their protection or influence? I don't think that's in any of the lore.
