Catechism of the Catholic Church on Angels

Please click for close-up of the altar at St. John Cantius, Chicago, IL, 01-10-10Do you believe in angels their powers?

Here is what the Catechism of the Catholic Church has to say on angels. (I've included 334-336 above.)

Me personally? Do I believe in their powers? Just this past Sunday, at St. John Cantius Church in Chicago (photo taken Sunday--click for close-up of altar), I attended their Tridentine Mass (this is not our usual parish, by the way, but is quickly becoming so) and during the homily (which is longer than our usual church's Novus Ordo Mass homily), because I could not make out what the priest was saying because of my hearing loss, I became somewhat distracted and began looking for angels at the altar. While I did not, in fact, *see* any angels, I knew they were there as much as I know anything on this earth, and, yes, I do *indeed* believe in their powers.
