Let us pray.
Pour forth, we beseech thee, O Lord, your grace into our hearts, that we, to whom the incarnation of Christ, your son, was made known by the message of an angel, may his passion and cross be brought to the glory of his resurrection, through the same Christ our Lord, amen. May the divine assistance remain always with us and may the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
1) the Angelus is an important part of the Catholic prayer time. It is important as it celebrates the incarnation of our Lord Jesus.
2) it is also important to Catholics, as it is also a prayer of Thanksgiving.
3) the annunciation is at the core of the Angelus. This is apparent with Mary saying to the angel of the lord, "be it done unto me according to thy will".
4) it helps to sanctify the day for most Catholics.
