Prayers of The Rosary

Sign of the Cross
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Apostles’ Creed

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His
only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered
under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell; on the third
day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God,
the Father Almighty; from there He will come 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.

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 trespasses, as we
forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary

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 to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now,
and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Fatima Prayer

O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell; lead all souls to Heaven,
especially those in most need of Thy mercy.

Hail Holy Queen

Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope. To thee do we cry,
poor banished children of Eve; to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this
valley of tears. Turn, then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us; and after
this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet
Virgin Mary. Pray for us, O holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of
Christ.

Closing Prayer

O God, whose Only-Begotten Son, by His life, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us
the rewards of eternal life, grant, we beseech Thee, that while meditating on these mysteries of
the most holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain and obtain
what they promise, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayer to St. Michael

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and
snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the
heavenly hosts, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about
the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
