The Apostle's 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 thence
He shall 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.
Then say 1 Our Father, 3 Hail Mary’s
for the virtues of Faith, Hope and Charity
and then 1 Glory Be

Act of Reparation to the Immaculate Heart of
Mary
O Most Holy Virgin Mother, we listen with grief to the
complaints of your Immaculate Heart surrounded
with the thorns placed therein at every moment by the
blasphemies and ingratitude of ungrateful humanity.

Prayers to Jesus and Mary for Mercy
Lord Jesus Christ, eternal and merciful God,
Creator and Redeemer of all, listen to my prayer.
For the love Thou doth bear to those who ask forgiveness.
Look on me with mercy, as once Thou didst
look on Mary Magdalen, and on Peter who denied Thee.
Look on me, Lord Jesus Christ,
as Thou didst looked at the thief on his cross
and on every sinner whom Thou hast ever forgiven.
Look on me, merciful Lord, as Thou didst look on Thy Mother,
Mary, standing in sorrow beneath Thy Cross.
Let me feel in my heart her compassion for Thee, and let my
eyes weep for Thy sorrows, cause by my sinful life.
Call me back from the darkness to my Father’s house, give me
a new heart and a place at Thy side in the banquet Thou hast
prepared for me.
Hail, Mary, my joy, my glory, my heart and my soul!
Thou art all mine through thy mercy, and I am all thine.
But I am not thine completely enough.
Destroy in me all that may be displeasing to God.
Place and cultivate in me everything that is pleasing to thee.
Amen.

Son suffer and die for us.

all. Mary, my mother, teach me to understand my suffering as
you do and to endure it in union with the suffering of Jesus.
In your motherly love, calm my fears and increase my trust in
God’s loving care. According to God’s plan, obtain for me the
healing I need. Intercede with your Son that I may have the
strength I need to work for God’s glory and the salvation of the
world. Amen.

God our Father, You made each of us to use our gifts in the
Body of Christ.

Send workers into Your great harvest so that the Gospel is
preached, the poor are served with love, the suffering are
comforted, and Your people are strengthened by the
sacraments.
Through the intercession of Mary our Blessed Mother, may
these our petitions be granted through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Daily, Daily, Sing To Mary
Daily, daily, sing to Mary,
Sing my soul, her praise due,
All her feasts, her actions honor,
With the heart's devotion true,
Lost in wond'ring contemplation,
Be her majesty confess'd;
Call her mother, call her virgin,
Happy mother, Virgin blest.
She is mighty in her pleading,
Tender in her loving care;
Ever watchful, understanding,
All our sorrows she will share.
Advocate and loving mother,
Mediatrix of all grace:
Heaven's blessings she dispenses
On our sinful human race.
All our graces flow through Mary;
All then join her praise to sing:
Fairest work of all creation,
Mother of creation's King.
Sing in songs of peace unending,
Call upon her lovingly:
Seat of wisdom, Gate of heaven,
Morning star upon the sea.

Canticle of Our Lady
My soul glorifies the Lord;
my spirit rejoices in God, my Savior.
He looks on his servant in her nothingness;
henceforth all generations will call me blessed.
The Almighty works marvels for me;
Holy is his name.
Holy is his name.
Holy is his name.
His mercy is from age to age
on those who fear him.
He puts forth his arm in strength
and scatters the proud hearted.
He casts the mighty from their thrones,
and he raises the lowly.
He fills the starving with good things,
sends the rich away empty.
Holy is his name.
Holy is his name.
He protects Israel his servant,
remembering his great mercy,
the mercy promised to our father,
to Abraham and his sons forever.
Alleluia, alleluia, amen.

The Magnificat (Canticle of Mary)
My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit finds joy in God my savior;
for he has looked upon His servant in her lowliness;
all ages to come shall call me blessed.
God who is mighty has done great things for me,
holy is His name;
His mercy is from age to age on those who fear Him.
He has shown might with His arm;
He has confused the proud in their inmost thoughts.
He has deposed the mighty from their thrones and
raised the lowly to high places. The hungry He has
given every good thing, while the rich He has sent
empty away.
He has upheld Israel his servant, ever mindful of His
mercy;
Even as He promised our fathers, promised Abraham
and
His descendants forever. Amen.

Prayer of Restoration Against COVID-19
Heavenly Father, we know that we can do nothing without
You, and that with You all things are possible. As we thank
You and give You praise and worship, we also come to You in
desperate need of Your power and healing grace. At this very
moment, we acknowledge that we are weak, fearful and
intimidated by COVID-19. Yes, even as we believe that You
have absolute power over this virus, our flesh is still afraid and
our spirit weak. Fill us therefore with Your courage, hope,
peace, and joy in this moment of fear and desperation.
David, your servant, testified, “I sought the Lord, and he heard
me, and delivered me from all my fears.” Your Word also tells
us that, You, Oh God, are close to the brokenhearted; that You
save those who are crushed in spirit and rescue them from all
their distress.
Father Almighty, we are highly distressed right now, fearful
and in despair and, just like David, we seek your face and
implore You to heal our land; to forbid this hand of death and
devastation. Come to our aid, forgive our sins, and send forth
the rain of deliverance upon the earth, and shower humanity
with your healing grace. Protect all healthcare workers as they
take care of the sick, strengthen and heal those who have
become afflicted and comfort those who have lost loved ones to
this virus. Provide wisdom and guidance to scientists and
researchers to find a cure to this pandemic, so that this virus
may be eradicated faster than it started. Show forth your
saving grace, so that every knee may bow and every tongue
may confess that it was nothing short of Your power that
delivered us from this mayhem. Father, please save your
people; answer this prayer and restore unto us the joy of our
salvation. We ask this in the Name of Jesus Christ your Son,
Amen.
