Angels definitely exist, some do have "missions" here on earth, although their only true mission is to help you get to the greatest version of the highest vision you ever had about who you are. Your will is truly their command. Angel starts with A for ask and ends with L for listen. You are constantly in touch with angelic guidance, though you may not realize it. Ask for their help, step back, and enjoy the results.

Yes angels exists. Both the ones who are on God's side and wicked ones.
Sadly, the good ones roles are as messengers...the ones among us are the wicked ones trying to imitate the angels of light.
“Satan himself keeps transforming himself into an angel of light. It is therefore nothing great if his ministers also keep transforming themselves into ministers of righteousness.” (2 Corinthians 11:14, 15)

absolutely!
Angels appear in the Bible from the beginning to the end, from the Book of Genesis to the Book of Revelation. The Bible is our best source of knowledge about angels - for example, Psalms 91:11, Matthew 18:10 and Acts 12:15 indicate humans have guardian angels.
Angels announce the birth of Jesus to the shepherds [Luke 2:14], minister to Christ after his temptation in the desert [Matthew 4:11], comforted Jesus in his agony in the garden [Luke 22:43], and appear to announce his resurrection from the dead [John 20:12] . According to Jesus, the angels of little ones continually behold the face of the Father [Matthew 18:10]; angels will come with Him on the Day of Judgement [Matthew 24:31], and the angels will separate the wicked from the just on the last day [Matthew 13:49], although they do not know the day of Judgement[Mark 13:32]; and the children of the resurrection will be equal to the angels [Luke 20:34].
Thomas Aquinas was a great medieval theologian, and is known as the "Angelic Doctor" for his extensive writings on angels in his book, the Summa Theologica. The word "angelos" in Greek means messenger. Angels are purely spiritual beings that do God's will [Psalms 103:20, Matthew 26:53]. He points out that sometimes angels take human form, as seen in the three men who appear to Abraham in the Book of Genesis, the two angels who appeared to Lot before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, or Raphael appearing in human form to Tobias. Thomas Aquinas believed that angels, being spiritual beings, influence mankind by illuminating one's mind with an idea.
Michael is one of the leading angels, and is considered "Prince" of the heavenly hosts, and the Guardian Angel of Persia [Daniel 10:13]. He is the only one in the Bible referred to as an Archangel [Jude 1:9], and serves a major role in Chapter 12 of the Book of Revelation. The angel Gabriel first appears in a vision to Daniel [Daniel 8:16], but is best known for the Annunciation to Mary that she would be the Mother of Jesus [Luke 1:26-38]. The Book of Tobias (Tobit 12:15) names Raphael as "one of the seven who stand before the Lord." Revelation 8:1-2 also refer to the seven angels who stand before the Lord.
Thomas Aquinas, quoting Scripture, the Apostle Paul and Dionysius, an Athenian converted by Paul [Acts 17:34], names 9 orders of angels in 3 groups: the highest hierarchy being next to God, Seraphim [Isaiah 6:2], Cherubim [Genesis 3:24, Ezekiel 10:1-22], and Thrones [Colossians 1:16]; the middle hierarchy involved in government, Dominations [Colossians 1:16], Virtues [1 Peter 3:22], and Powers [Col 1:16]; and the third hierarchy involved in work, Principalities [Col 1:16], Archangels [1 Thessalonians 4:16], and Angels.

Absolutely. every human soul has a guardian angel and their function can be numerous. They report back to God on your behalf good and bad. They deliver messages of prayer. They can also deliver messages to other gardian angels. At the holy mass they offer up your petitions, sufferings, and thanksgivings upon the alter. I'm sure they have more functions.

Oh I most certainly do believe that, sir! By the way, are you Latin American/Latino/Hispanic?.......because I noticed you typed with an upside down question mark. We don't use them in America.....that isn't necessary. Don't take offense to this. I'm just helping you out. I had a very good friend from El Salvador and I found her doing the upside down question mark when she wrote in English. It's okay. :-)

I just looked at a lot of the answers and I'm beginning to think most humans live in an imaginary world lately.. wake up everyone! There are no tooth faeries, no angels, no monsters, no unicorns!

How did you get the upside down question mark? Well, my G-friend is an Angel reader, kind of like tarot card reader, but without the death cards, and since I trust her judgement, I have to assume that angels are real.

It depends on how you define angel. It's a relative term created by humans. It might represent a spiritual concept abstract beyond our constrained definitions, so it is hard to tell.
There are definitely spirits that exist here. Some are "angelic," some are quite far from it.
