Your Night Prayer

Learn More About The Angelus

Today’s Night Prayer is brought to you by Catholic Coffee

A Night Prayer

Jesus Christ, my God, I adore You and thank You for all the graces You have given me this day. I offer You my sleep and all the moments of this night. I place myself and all my loved ones, wherever they may be, in Your sacred side and under the mantle of Our Blessed Mother. Let Your holy angels stand watch and keep us in peace. Amen.

Quote of the Day

“May we know You more clearly, love You more dearly, and follow You more nearly, day by day.” -St. Richard of Chichester 

Today’s Meditation

“The Lord has given me the light to know His will more profoundly and to abandon myself completely to the holy will of God. This light has confirmed me in profound peace, making me understand that I should fear nothing, except sin. Whatever God sends me, I accept with complete submisison to His holy will. Wherever He puts me, I will try faithfully to do His holy will, as well as His wishes, to the extent of my power to do so. —Diary, 1394” —Mercy’s Gaze: 100 Readings from Scriputre and the Diary of St. Faustina, Vinny Flynn, pg 64

An excerpt from Mercy’s Gaze: 100 Readings from Scripture and the Diary of St. Faustina

The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ

Examination of Conscience

The daily examination of conscience is an ancient Catholic practice. It’s very simple, and it’s designed to help us identify our sins and weaknesses so that we can improve and grow stronger in the spiritual life, while providing an excellent ongoing preparation for regular Confession. It consists of taking a few minutes at the end of the day to prayerfully review our actions in the light of God’s commandments, followed by the Act of Contrition.

 Reflect on the victories and losses

Actively reflecting on the high and low points of the day can help you live more intentionally and bring a renewed sense of resolve into the following day.

• Review your actions, words, and thoughts today. Did you actively guard yourself against temptation? Where did sin creep in?
• In what moments did you practice virtue and moral courage?
• Were you attuned to the Holy Spirit’s promptings today? Where did you feel His inspiration?
• Ask Him for the graces necessary to follow His Will more purposefully tomorrow.

 Act of Contrition

O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee, and I detest all my sins because of Thy just punishments, but most of all because they offend Thee, my God, Who art all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of Thy grace to sin no more and to avoid the near occasions of sin. Amen.

 Practice gratitude

It is God’s love that has brought you into existence and to this exact moment. Practice looking for His hand in your day. 

• Where did you feel His loving gaze upon you today?
• What people or moments helped you see God in your life?
• Thank God for all these moments!
• Ask Him to help you recognize His blessings and providence tomorrow.

 Renew your commitment to Christ

Remember: our Faith is founded upon a Person—Christ! Renew your personal love and devotion to Him.

• Thank God for the gift of His Son Jesus and our call to be His disciples.
• Tell the Lord of your desire to know Christ more personally.
• If possible, set an intention for your day tomorrow. Ask Our Lord to guide you in this act.
• Pray a Hail Mary, Our Father, or another beloved prayer.

Rest with God

My people will abide in a peaceful habitation, in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places. — Isaiah 32:18

What are some of our aims for 2026?

• End hunting with hounds for good: We have a once-in-a-generation chance to shut down trail hunting for good by flooding the Government’s public consultation with responses. We’ll be pushing harder than ever. Over 250,000 people have already signed our petition or written to their MP using our template, and we’ll be ramping up the campaign even further in the new year.
• Expose the bird shooting industry: We’ll be releasing the findings from the largest undercover investigation into the UK bird shooting industry ever carried out. Months of footage will reach millions of people and form the backbone of our campaign to End Bird Shooting.
• End the Guga Hunt: We’re backing Rachel Bigsby’s Scottish Government petition to end the Guga Hunt, while piling pressure on NatureScot to do the right thing and withdraw the licence. We also have several actions and events lined up that you can be part of.
• End bird netting: We’re building the UK’s first dedicated End Bird Netting website, including a live map showing where birds have been found trapped in netting. This is the start of a larger long-term campaign to pressure companies and secure legislative change in the years ahead.
• Completely end the badger cull: Right now, just one badger cull licence is still active. We will fight to make sure the cull is completely scrapped and never renewed, ending badger culling entirely. Our Government petition earlier this year was a landmark moment, with MPs across the political spectrum backing an immediate end. We’ll keep challenging the Government in every way possible to protect this iconic British species.
• Take on the pest control industry and prove humane alternatives work: We’re currently running the largest research project ever undertaken into how many animals are being killed by taxpayer-funded bodies. 

This sits alongside our ongoing work reaching more than 30 million people every month with bold, pro-wildlife messaging, while backing a wide range of causes and campaigns. We’ll be creating even more hard-hitting, viral animations, and we’ll continue supporting direct-action groups and animal rights activists through our mental health service, and by providing equipment and funding for grassroots action.LIKECOMMENTRESTACK
