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; the third day
He arose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven
and is seated 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.

Hail Holy Queen [Salve, Regina]

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy; hail our life, our sweetness and our hope.

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 made worthy of the promises of Christ.
