The
Sign of the Cross
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen Our
Father
Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed by Thy name; Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our
daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who
trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver
us from evil. Amen Hail Mary
Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are 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.
The Apostles Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth;
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: Who was conceived by
the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary; suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell; the third
day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, is seated
at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall
come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit,
The Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness
of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
Hail Holy Queen
Hail Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life our sweetness and our hope.
To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; To thee do we send
up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then,
most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us and after this
our exile show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement,
O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
V - Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God
R - That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Fatima
Prayer
O my Jesus, have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, save us from the
fires of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those most in
need of thy mercy. Amen.
The Fatima Prayer may be prayed on each decade after the Glory Be
to the Father. |
