I don’t know why or when Catholics stopped reciting (as a group) the St. Michael prayer at the end of mass. Do you? I just learned recently that we used to recite it at the end of every mass.

It’s coming back. Some parishes do recite it, but not after mass. It’s also a good prayer of protection.

The prayer is recited after the televised Mass celebrated at EWTN in Irondale, Alabama.
