Traditional Catholic Prayers: See Appendix B in the U.S. Catholic Catechism for Adults
Sign of the Cross: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
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, 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 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
Act of Contrition: Oh, my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee. And, I detest all my because they offend Thee, my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen
