Angelus
℣. The Angel of the Lord announced to Mary
℟. And she conceived of the Holy Ghost.
Hail Mary…
℣. Behold the handmaid of the Lord.
℟. Let it be done to me according to Your Word.
Hail Mary…
℣. And the Divine Word became incarnate.
℟. And dwelt among us.
Hail Mary…
℣. Pray for us, holy Mother of God.
℟. That we may be worthy of the promises of Christ.
℣. Let us pray:
Pour your grace into our spirit, O Father; You who in the angel's message revealed to us the incarnation of your Son, through his Passion and Cross, lead us to the glory of his resurrection. Through Christ our Lord.
℟. Amen.
What time should I pray the Angelus?
As is customary in the Catholic Church, the Angelus is prayed at 6:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. However, you can adapt the times to your routine, praying when you wake up, at lunch and before going to bed, for example.
When is the Regina Coeli prayer said?
During Easter time, instead of the Angelus, we pray the Regina Coeli (Queen of Heaven) prayer.
℣. Queen of Heaven, rejoice, hallelujah.
℟. Because who did you deserve to bring
℣. He is risen as he said, hallelujah.
℟. Pray to God for us, alleluia.
℣. Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia.
℟. For the Lord is truly risen, hallelujah.
℣. Let us pray:
O God, who hast deigned to bring joy to the world by the resurrection of thy Son Jesus Christ, our Lord, grant, we beseech thee, that through his mother, the Virgin Mary, we may obtain the joys of eternal life. Through Christ, our Lord.
℟. Amen.
