Mysteries
of the Most Holy Rosary
Sign of the
Cross:
In the Name of the
Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen
The Apostles
Creed:
I believe in God, the
Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth and in Jesus Christ, his only
Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, born of
the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and
was buried. He descended to the dead and on the third day He rose again.
He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God, the
Father Almighty. From thence He shall come again 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 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; forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who
trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver
us from evil. Amen |
Intentions: Faith, Hope, &
Love
Three Hail
Mary's:
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:
Glory be to the
Father,
And to the Son,
And the the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the
beginning,
Is now,
And ever shall be.
World
without end. Amen |
| Fatima Prayer: O my

souls to heaven, especially those in most need of Your Mercy.
