by him, manifest your sorrow by reciting the act of contrition.
Act of Contrition
O, my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you. I detest all my sins because of your just
punishment, but most of all because they offend you, my God, who are all-good and deserving of
all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of your grace, to sin no more and to avoid the near
occasion of sin. Amen.
Lords prayer
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.
