  PRAYERS
  Lord's Prayer
  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
  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.
 

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 by this confidence,
  I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and
sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions but in thy mercy answer me.
Amen.
Anima Christi
Soul of Christ, Sanctify me, Body of Christ, save me, Blood of Christ, inebriate me, Water from the
side of Christ, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. O my Jesus hear me, within thy wounds,
hide me. Separated from thee let me never be. From the evil one protect me. At the hour of my death
call me and close to you bid me that with your saints I may praise thee forever and ever. Amen.

    O my God, at the end of this day I thank You most heartily for all the graces I have received from you
I am sorry that I have not made a better use of them. I am sorry for all the sins I have committed
  against You. Forgive me, O my God, and graciously protect me this night. Blessed Virgin Mary, my
  dear heavenly mother, take me under your protection. St. Joseph, my dear Guardian Angel, and all
  you saints of God, pray for me. Sweet Jesus, have pity on all poor sinners, and save them from hell.
Have mercy on the suffering souls in purgatory......(followed by an Act of Contrition)
Act of Contrition
My God, I am sorry for my sins with all my heart, in choosing to do wrong and failing to do good, I
  have sinned against you whom I should love above all things. I firmly intend, with your help to do
  penance, to sin no more, and to avoid whatever leads me to sin. Our saviour Jesus Christ suffered
and died for us. In His name have mercy.

Prayer for the Sick
  Father of goodness and love, hear our prayers for the sick members of our community and for all
    who are in need. Amid mental & physical suffering may they find consolation in your healing presence
    Show your mercy as you close wounds, cure illness, make broken bodies whole and free downcast
spirits. May these special people find lasting health and deliverance, and so join us in thanking you for
  all your gifts. We ask this through the Lord Jesus who healed those who believed. Amen.
 
  The Nicene Creed
  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. 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 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.
