Sign of the Cross (All)
In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

The Lord’s Prayer (All)
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.

Hail Mary (All)
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art 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.

Glory Be (All)
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.

Before Meals (All)
Bless us, O Lord, and these thy gifts, which we are about to receive from thy bounty, through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

After Meals (All)
We give You thanks for all Your benefits, O Almighty God, who lives and reigns forever, and may the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy or God, rest in peace. Amen.

Act of Contrition (All)
O my God, I am sorry for my sins. In choosing to sin and failing to do good, I have sinned against you and your church. I firmly intended, with the help of your Son, to make up for my sins and to love as I should. Amen.

Salute to the Cross (All)
Unto the King Eternal, immortal and invisible the only God be honor and glory forever. Amen.

The Angelus (6-8)
The angel of the Lord declared unto Mary. And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.
Hail Mary, etc.
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us.
Hail Mary, etc.
Pray for us, O holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Pour forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord, Thy grace into our hearts, that we, to whom the incarnation of Christ Thy Son, was made known by the message of an angel, may by His Passion and Cross be brought to the glory of his Resurrection. Through the same Christ Our Lord. Amen.

Regina Caeli (6-8)
Queen of Heaven, rejoice, Alleluia. For He Whom thou didst deserve to bear, Alleluia. Has risen as He said, Alleluia. Pray for us to God, Alleluia. Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, Alleluia, For the Lord is truly risen, Alleluia.
Let us pray.
O God, who by the resurrection of Thy Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, has been pleased to fill the world with joy; grant, we beseech Thee, that by the Virgin Mary, His mother, we may receive the joys of eternal life. Through the same Christ Our Lord. Amen.

Memorare (6-8)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that any one who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother, to thee I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful; O Mother of the word incarnate, despise not my petitions; but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Creed (6-8)
We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, one in Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he was born of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered, died, and was buried. On the third day he rose again in fulfillment of the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one holy Catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
