And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.
Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Let us pray: pour forth we beseech You, 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 be brought by His passion and cross to the glory of the resurrection, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
O God, grant me a moment to reflect on Your gift to me of this day. Help me to see Your touch in all that has already happened and to hope You will be with me in all that is still coming my way. For the tasks You have given me and for the strength to face them, I thank You, Lord. For these moments of peace and for all the ways You keep me going, whether I am aware of them or not, I give You thanks. Amen.
I confess to Almighty God, to blessed Mary, ever virgin, to blessed Michael the Archangel, to blessed John the Baptist, to the holy apostles, Peter and Paul, and to all the saints, that I have sinned exceedingly in thought, word, and deed, (strike breast three times) through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault. Therefore I beseech blessed Mary, ever virgin, blessed Michael the Archangel, blessed John the Baptist, the holy apostles, Peter and Paul, and all the saints, to pray to the Lord, our God, for me.
May almighty God have mercy upon me, forgive me my sins, and bring me to life everlasting. Amen.
May the almighty and merciful Lord grant me pardon, absolution, and full remission of my sins. Amen.
Watch, O Lord, those who wake or watch or weep tonight, and give Your angels and saints charge over those who sleep. Tend Your sick ones, O Lord Christ. Rest Your weary ones, bless Your dying ones, soothe Your suffering ones, shield Your joyous ones, and all for Your love's sake. Amen.
Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s love entrusts me here, ever this day be at my side to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.
Protect us, Lord, as we stay awake; watch over us as we sleep, that awake we may keep watch with Christ, and asleep, rest in His peace. Amen.

My Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews, please protect me from an unprovided or sudden death this night, and all my family, loved ones and friends. Amen.
O Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer You my prayers, works, joys, sorrows and sufferings of this day, in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I offer them for all the intentions of Your Sacred Heart: the salvation of souls, in reparation for sin, and the reunion of all Christians. I offer them for all the intentions of the Holy Father, our bishops, the Apostleship of prayer and in particular for [name your intentions]. Amen.
I give You heartfelt thanks, heavenly Father, for the rest of the past night, and for the gift of a new day with its opportunities of living to Your glory. May I so pass its hours in the perfect freedom of Your service that when evening comes, we may again give thanks, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
