Where are you from? How long have you been Catholic?
I’ve been Catholic since conception. I have been raised strongly in the Faith. My families’ Catholicism goes back many generations. I am now 59. I am a practicing, vocational Catholic.

Tie to angels? I hope you’re kidding. That’s impossible.
From: me: The Catholic Church promulgates the belief that anything is possible with God.
To Jpascucci1997:
To my knowledge, the Roman Catholic Church does not use nor practice this tradition.
It’s important to know that different Roman Catholic cultures and, if fact, even different Roman Catholic Parishes have many traditions not always held by all of them.
Are you of the Roman Catholic Church lead by our Pope Francis in Rome? … or one of the 3 other Catholic Churches in this world recognized by the Pope in Rome?
How is this ball on a necklace typically used? Where is this tradition primarily used, now? As Roman Catholics, we are called to respect & to learn about those of all Faiths.
Here is One way to “call” one of the more than hundreds of thousands of Angels Catholics recognize:
- Make Sign of the Cross
- Think, move lips silently, whisper, sing or say out loud (on your own or with others):
Angel of God, my (our) Guardian(s), dear, to whom His Love commits us here. Ever this day, be at my (our) side, to Light, to Guide, to Rule & Guard, Amen.
- If you wish, you can continue praying/talking/visiting to your Guardian (or any) Angel about anything you wish.
- Close your visit with the Sign of the Cross.
**You don’t need to say this prayer to pray/speak/visit with an Angel. Just ;make the Sign of the Cross before & after your prayer/visit.
Also – learn & say the Holy Rosary. If you wish me to tell you more about this, just let me know. I would be more than happy (thrilled, actually) to tell/teach you about this very important tradition.
Also – attend Mass every Sunday (at least) - but even better, every day, or more than once per week.
God bless you.
