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 arose again from the dead; He ascended
into Heaven, and 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.
The Lords’ Prayer (Our Father)
Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be 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.
The Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou amongst 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.
Glory be (Doxology)
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.
The Fatima Invocation
O Jesus, Forgive us our sins. Save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to
heaven, especially those most in need of Thy mercy.
CONCLUDING PRAYERS
Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy. Hail, 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!

The Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who
fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left
unaided.
Inspired with this confidence, we fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, our Mother.
To thee do we come; before thee we stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of The
Word Incarnate, despise not our petitions, but in thy mercy, hear us and answer us.
Amen.

The prayer of Saint Michael the Archangel

Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in the hour of conflict, be our safeguard
against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God restrain him, we humbly
pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust satan
down to hell and with him all wicked spirits who wander through the world
seeking the ruin of souls.

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