384                                                    The Rosary
                               by  the  Holy  Spirit,  born  of  the  Virgin  Mary,  suffered  under  Pontius
                               Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended to the dead.
                               On the third day, He rose again. He ascended to Heaven and is seated
                               at the right hand of the Father. He will come again 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, 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 tres-
                               pass against  us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from
                               evil. Amen.

                               Hail  Mary,  full  of  grace.  The  Lord  is  with  thee.  Blessed  art  thou
                               amongst  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. (3 times)

                               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 of our sins. Save us from the fires of hell. Lead
                               all souls into heaven, especially those in most need of thy mercy.
