Remember to add your name to your info by putting it in brackets at the end. [Mr Gibb]

Some people think that angels are the spirits of people who have died and that we will all become angels when we go to heaven. But many people also think that angels were Gods very first creation and they are spirits without bodies but they have the power to appear in human form. The word "angel" comes from the Greek word "angelos" which means messenger. Angels have never and will never become human just as we have never and will never become angels. They are powerful creatures (spirits) that know, love and serve God. Some people believe that there are different kinds of angels. These incude: //**Seraphim**// which are angels of love //**C**////**herubim**// which are normally associated with your intellect and insight //**Thrones**// which are usually calm and without noise, violence and worry (This is commonly known as tranquillity) //**Principalities**// are the protectors of entire nations and of very important people //**Archangels**// have to give the most important messages for human beings This is a prayer that is usually given to Guardian angels: O Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s love commits me here, ever this day be at my side, to light, to guard, to rule and to guide. Lucifer is an archangel who became the Devil and Satan is the leader of the fallen angels (Lucifer and Satan are both the same person) //**The Sinning Angels (or demons)**// are guilty of all sins commited as they lead the sins. But these angels are not able to commit sins themselves.
 * //Guardian Angels//** are the ordinary messengers and guardians of children on earth.
 * //Fallen Angels//** are angels who rebel against God and get sent to hell or are not allowed into heaven.

In 1916 the “Angel of Portugal” appeared to three little children, Lucia, Jacinto and Francesco and taught them how to pray and to feel sorry on behalf of sinners. He also prepared them to hear and obey Mary, Mother of Jesus, who appeared to them later with messages for the entire world.
