Our Father:
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 sins, just as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not into temptation, but
deliever us from evil. Amen.
Act of Hope:
"My God, who has graciously promised every blessing, even Heaven
itself, through Jesus Christ, to those who keep your commandments. Relying on your
infifnite power, goodness, and mercy, and confiding in your sacred promises, to which you
are always faithful, I confidently hopw to obtain pardon of all my sins, grace to serve
you faithfully in this life, by doing the good works which you have commanded, which, with
your assistance, I will perform; and eternal happiness in the next, through my Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ. Amen"
Act of Charity:
"My God, I love you with my whole heart and soul, above all things,
becuase you are infinitely good and perfect, and most worthy of all my love; and for your
sake I love my neighbor as myself. Mercifully grant, O My God, that having loved you on
Earth, I may love and enjoy you forever in Heaven. Amen."
To The Holy Trinity:
"Most Holy Trinity, your goodness has brought me to the beginning of
this day and now I offer it to You with its thoughts, words and actions together with any
crosses and contradictions I may encounter. Give your blessing to this day, your gift to
me, so that it may be animated with Your love and so bring glory and honor to Your divine
majesty. Amen."
To God the Father:
Eternal God, who are the Light of the minds that know you, the Joy of the
hearts that love you and the strength of the wills that serve you; grant us so to know
you, that we may truly love you, and so to love You that we may fully serve you, whom to
serve is perfect freedom. In Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
Saint Augustine
Heavenly Father, I offer you the life and death of your Son, and with them my affections and resolutions, my thoughts, words, deeds, and sufferings this day and all my life, to honor your adorable majesty to thank you for all my benefits, to satisfy for my sins, and to obtain the assistance of your Grace so that I may persevere to the end, in doing Your holy Will, and may love and enjoy You forever in Your Holy Kingdom.
To Christ, God the Son:
Lord Jesus, grant us this day, to direct and sanctify, to rule and govern
our hearts and bodies so that all our thoughts, words and deeds may be according to your
Father's law and thus may we be saved and protected through Your mighty help. Amen.
O Lord Jesus Christ, who has created me and ordered my course and
brought me hither where I am; thou knowest what thou wouldst make me; do with me according
to thy will, with mercy. Amen.
King Henry VII
To God The Holy Spirit:
Holy Spirit, I thank you for the quiet moments of this busy day when you
spoke to me of your abiding love. Teach me know as I lay down to rest how to listen to you
when you speak in the silence of the night, in the silence of my heart. Teach me waking or
sleeping how to watch and how to listen for your still, small voice, which gives meaning
and direction to every moment of my life. Amen.
Michael Buckley
Dear Spirit, God of the Holy Trinity in unity with the Father and the Son, grant me peace and guidance throughout my day, the days to come, and throughout my life. Offer unto me the Love of You, the Love of God, and help me to represent you in my actions, words, and thoughts. Amen.
