 SIGN OF THE CROSS

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen

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;

on the third day He arose again from the dead.

He ascended into heaven,

and is seated at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty;

from there 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.

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 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.

GLORY BE TO THE FATHER

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

FATIMA PRAYER

O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead all souls to Heaven, especially those who have most need of your mercy.

HAIL, HOLY QUEEN

Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, hail our life, our sweetness and our hope, to you we cry, poor banished children of Eve, to you we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears; turn then O most gracious Advocate, your eyes of mercy towards, us and after this, our exile, show us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus. O Clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!

Pray for us O holy Mother of God.

That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

LET US PRAY  O 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 on 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.

EXTRA PRAYERS

WE FLY TO THY PATRONAGE – Sub Tuum Praesidium

We fly to Thy protection, O Holy Mother of God. Do not despise our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from all dangers, O Glorious and Blessed Virgin.

PRAYER TO ST MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL

Saint Michael Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
