Today we will be praying the sorrowful mysteries. Let us begin in the name of the Father

and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 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 Pontchish Pilate, was crucified,

died, and was buried. He descended to hell. On the third day,

he rose again from the dead, and he ascended into heaven, and is seated 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 a life everlasting, amen.

For our Holy Father's health and intentions, our Father who art in heaven, howlode 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

for an increase in the theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity. Hail Mary, full of

grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
