The Angelus is prayed 3 times a day and it keeps us reminded of God and His place in our lives. The Angelus reminds us that Christ came to earth by the assent of a young woman and reminds us that we too should trust, reverence and respect God and obey His wishes. We too have to bring Christ into the world by saying ''Yes'' as Mary did.

Catholic AnswerEach of the times has a different story. The evening Angelus probably owes its original to the curfew bell, a signal for evening prayer. The morning recital began as a prayer for peace. The none Angelus was first said only on Friday. It is a devotion in honor of the Incarnation, commemorating the angel Gabriel's' annunciation of the Blessed Virgin. Catholics have always prayed it out of their great devotion to the Mother of God and their devotion to the incarnation of our Blessed Savior. from Modern Catholic Dictionary by John A. Hardon, S.J.

There are prayers before meals, the Angelus in the morning, noon, and evening, the Divine Mercy at 3 pm, the De Profundus at 5 pm.
