NOW THE birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit.... But as he considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit; she will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."

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 power of 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 is seated at the right hand of God, the Father almighty. He will come again in glory 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.

(CLOSING PRAYERS)

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 worthy of the promises of Christ. Amen.

O MY GOD:

LET US pray: // O my God, whose only begotten Son, by His passion, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life, grant, we beseech Thee, that by meditating upon these sacred 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.

MEMORARE:

REMEMBER, O most gracious Virgin Mary, // that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto Thee, O Virgin of Virgins, my Mother. To Thee I come, before Thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate!  Despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy, hear and answer us.  Amen.

PRAYER TO ST. MICHAEL:

SAINT 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 Host, 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. 

SIGN OF THE CROSS:

(ALL) IN THE name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
