The Apostles’
Creed
I BELIVE 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 to the dead: On the third day He rose again: He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of the Father: He will come again 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
Our Father
Our Father in
heaven, hallowed be thy Name thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as in
heaven.
Give us to this
day our daily bread. Forgive us our
trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. Do not bring us to the test, but deliver us
from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full
of grace, the Lord is with you, blessed are you among women, and blessed is the
fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen
O My Jesus
(To be said
after the Glory Be to the Father following each decade of the Rosary. All pray
it together.)
O MY JESUS,
forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell, lead all souls to Heaven,
especially those who are in most need of Thy mercy.
Prayer after
reciting the Rosary
God, whose only
begotten son by His life, death and resurrection has purchased for us the
rewards of eternal life. Grant, we beseech you, that, meditating upon these
mysteries of the most holy rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary. We may imitate
what they contain and obtain what they promise. Through the same Christ our
Lord. Amen
THE HAIL HOLY
QUEEN
HAIL, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, hail,
our life, our sweetness and our hope! To you do we cry, poor banished children
of Eve: to you do we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate,
your eyes of mercy towards us, and after this our exile, show to us the blessed
fruit of your womb, Jesus, O Clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
V Pray for us, O holy Mother of God.

of Christ.
