Have
mercy on us, O Lord
The
Sign of the Cross
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Confiteor
I confess to Almighty God, to blessed Mary ever Virgin, to blessed
Michael the Archangel, to
blessed John the Baptist, to the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and
to all the saints, that I have
sinned exceedingly in thought, word, and deed, through my fault, through
my fault, through my
most grievous fault. Therefore, I beseech blessed Mary ever Virgin,
blessed Michael the
Archangel, blessed John the Baptist, the holy Apostles Peter and Paul,
and all the saints, to pray
to the Lord our God for me.
May Almighty God have mercy on me, forgive me my sins, and bring me
to everlasting life. Amen.
May the Almighty and merciful Lord grant me pardon, absolution, and
remission of all my sins. Amen.
Act
of Contrition
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended You, and I detest
all my sins, because I dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell,
but most of all because they offend You, my God, who
are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the
help of Your grace, to
confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen.
Apostle's
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 the dead;
the third day He arose again;
He ascended into heaven, seated at the right hand of God, the Father
Almighty;
from where 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.

Prayer
Our Father in heaven,
holy be your name.

Father, Son and Holy
Spirit; I believe that Your divine Son became man, and died for our

which the Holy Catholic
Church teaches, because You have revealed them, who can neither deceive
nor be deceived.

because You are all-good and worthy of all love. I love my neighbour as
myself for the love of You. I forgive all who
have injured me, and ask pardon of all whom I have injured.
Prayer
of St Ignatius
O Lord,
teach me to be generous,
teach me to serve you as you deserve,
to give and not to count the cost
to fight and not to heed the wounds
to toil and not to seek for rest
to labour and not to seek reward
save that of knowing
I do Your most holy will.
St. Ignatius of Loyola
Prayer
for Peace
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.
Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
St. Francis of Assisi

Salve
Regina (Hail Holy Queen) usually at the end of the rosary

hail our life our sweetness and our hope.

show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus.

we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise.
Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
Memorare
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that
anyone who fled to your
protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left
unaided. Inspired with this
confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you
I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word
Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer
me. Amen.

in Your wounds, I fain would hide
never to be parted from Your side.
Guard me should the foe assail me,
call me when my life should fail me.
Bid me come to You above
with all Your saints to sing Your love
world without end. Amen.
Prayer
before a crucifix
Behold, O kind and most sweet Jesus, I cast myself upon my knees in
Your sight and with the most fervent desire of my soul I pray and beseech
You that You would impress upon my heart lively sentiments of faith, hope
and charity, with true repentance for my sins and a firm desire of amendment,
while with deep affection and grief of soul I ponder within myself and
mentally contemplate Your five most precious wounds; having before my eyes
that which David spoke in prophecy of You, O good Jesus; they have pierced
my hands and my feet; they have numbered all my bones.

of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, my life this day may be of service
