Short reading
1 Pet 5:8-9
Brothers: Be calm but vigilant, because your enemy the devil is
prowling round like a roaring lion, looking for someone to eat: Stand up
to him strong in faith.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
V. Our help is in the name of the Lord,
R. Who made heaven and earth.
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.

I confess to almighty God, to blessed Mary ever Virgin, to blessed

Michael the Archangel, to blessed John the Baptist, to the holy Apostles
Peter and Paul, and to all the Saints, that I have sinned exceedingly in
thought, word and deed: strikes his breast through my fault, through my
fault, through my most grievous fault. Therefore I beseech blessed Mary
ever Virgin, blessed Michael the Archangel, blessed John the Baptist,
the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and all the Saints, to pray for me to the
Lord our God.
May almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and bring us
to everlasting life. Amen.
May the almighty and merciful Lord grant us pardon, absolution and
remission of our sins. Amen.
