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.
PRAYER FOR THE VIRTUE OF FAITH
Your steadfastness being my living model!
Kindly grant me the richness of such faith,
To embrace Your Father as my true Provider,
Having staunch belief in His eminent powers
And to remain loyal to Him until my last day.
If my faith shifts as temporary waves,
Rush to my rescue without any hesitation,
Protecting others from my fleeting frailty.
May Your Presence always be lively enjoyed,
Enabling me to shine as a flame of faith.
My faith loyally reaches out to You!
NICENE CREED
We believe in God, the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
and 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 fulfilment of the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead,
and His kingdom will have no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.
With the Father and the Son
he is worshipped 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.
PRAYER TO MY GUARDIAN ANGEL
Angel of God's light, whom God sends as a
companion for me on earth,
protect me from the snares of the devil,
and help me to walk always as a child of God, my Creator.
Angel of God's truth, whose perfect
knowledge serves what is true,
protect me from deceits and temptations.
Help me to know the truth,
and always to live the truth.
Angel of God's love, who praises Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God, who sacrificed His life for love of us,
sustain me as I learn the ways of Divine love,
of sacrificial generosity, of meekness
and lowliness of heart.
Thank You, my heavenly friend, for your watchful care.
At the moment of my death,
bring me to heaven,
where the one true God,
Who is light, Truth and Love,
lives and reigns forever and ever.
Amen.
ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISI PRAYER
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.
O, 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 again to eternal life.
I humbly implore You to grant Your special graces to our family.
May our home be the shrine of peace, purity, love, labor and faith.
I beg You, dear Jesus, to protect and bless all of us, absent and present, living
and dead.
O Mary,
loving Mother of Jesus,
and our Mother,
pray to Jesus for our family,
for all the families of the world,
to guard the cradle of the newborn,
the schools of the young and their vocations.
Blessed Saint Joseph,
holy guardian of Jesus and Mary,
assist us by your prayers
in all the necessities of life.
Ask of Jesus that special grace
which He granted to you,
to watch over our home
at the pillow of the sick and the dying,
so that with Mary and with you,
heaven may find our family unbroken
in the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Amen.
GUARDIAN ANGEL PRAYER BY ST. GERTRUDE
appointed by God to be my guardian,
I give you thanks for all the benefits
which you have ever bestowed on me
in body and in soul.
I praise and glorify you
that you condescended to assist me
with such patient fidelity,
and to defend me against all the assaults of my enemies.
Blessed be the hour in which
you were assigned me for my guardian,
my defender and my patron.
In acknowledgement and return
for all your loving ministries to me,
I offer you the infinitely precious
and noble heart of Jesus,
and firmly purpose to obey you henceforward,
and most faithfully to serve my God.
Amen
