      Hail, Mary, full of grace,
      the Lord is with thee.
      Blessed art thou amongst 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 🙏

      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 🙏

      I confess to Almighty God
      and to you,
      my brothers and sisters,
      that I have greatly sinned,
      in my thoughts and in my words,
      in what I have done and in what I have failed to do,
      (Striking Breast) through my fault, through my fault,
      through my most grievous fault;
      therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin,
      all the Angels and Saints,
      and you, my brothers and sisters,
      to pray for me to the Lord our God amen 🙏

      The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever amen 🙏
