When I was way younger (10, 11-ish) I would attend the 6:30 a.m. Mass on Sundays so that I could be back home in time to watch a favorite TV series, Touched by an Angel. It aired on Sundays. I wouldn’t miss it, except on days when there was a temporary power outage. I loved that show; it’s about a group of angels—three of them—sent to earth from heaven on assignments to help humans. In each episode they would show up in the lives of the people they were assigned to, to help solve a case. Of course, their subjects were initially unaware they were angels. The angels would show up in guises of people from just about any walk of life. They would become someone the person, or a family, needs—and, in a delicate process, find a way to be part of their lives and help bring about the solution to whatever predicament. It is usually at the point of having solved the case that they reveal their identity as angels, declaring with the words “I’m an angel” while they are transformed in a halo of light, facing the person, or persons, who may or may not be astounded. (Not all the humans were impressed.)
