Pater Noster

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name;
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

R: 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.

Ave Maria (3)

Too often lacking trust in our Lord,
We pray for an increase in the theological virtue of Faith. 

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you;
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.

R: Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now
     and at the hour of our death. 

AMEN.

Too often tempted to despair,
We pray for an increase in the theological virtue of Hope. 

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you;
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.

R: Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now
     and at the hour of our death. 

AMEN.

Too often indifferent to the needs of others, or enslaved by our own desires,
We pray for an increase in the theological virtue of Charity. 

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you;
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.

R: Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now
     and at the hour of our death. 

AMEN.

Doxology

Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit;

R: As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.

AMEN.
