because you are infinitely good;
and for your sake I love my neighbor
as I love myself."
"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 sin no more,
to do penance and to avoid
whatever leads me to sin.
Amen."

"I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will 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."

and kindle in them the fire of your love.
Send forth your Spirit, and
they shall be created;
And you will renew the face of the earth.
O God, on the first Pentecost
you instructed the hearts of those who
believed in you
by the light of the Holy Spirit;
under the inspiration of the same Spirit,
give us a taste
for what is right and true
and a continuing sense
of his presence and power;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen."

and to you my brothers and sisters,
that I have sinned through my own fault,
in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done,
and what I have failed to do;
and I ask the Blessed Mary,
ever Virgin, all the angels and saints,
and you, my brothers and sisters,
to pray for me to the Lord our God."

thy gifts for which we are
about to receive from your bounty,
through Christ our Lord.

Almighty God, for these
and all your blessings;
you live and reign
for ever and ever.
Amen.

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 not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen."

faithful guardian of Jesus,
chaste spouse of the Mother of God,
I pray you to join with me in praising God the Father
through His divine Son
who died on the cross and
rose again to give us sinners new live.
Through the Holy Name of Jesus,
pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father
the favor we ask for...
We have been unfaithful to the unfailing love of God the Father;
beg of Jesus mercy for us His brothers.
Amid the splendors of God's loving presence,
do not forget the sorrows of those who suffer,
those who pray, those who weep.
By your prayers and those of your most holy Spouse,
our Blessed Lady,
may the love of Jesus
answer our call of confident hope.
Amen.
Saint Joseph of Mount Royal, pray for us."

Defend us in battle,
Be our protection against the wickedness and
snares of the devil;

And do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
By the power of God, thrust into hell
Satan and all evil spirits
Who wander through the world
For the ruin of souls. Amen."
