Morning Offering

O Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer you my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings of this
day in union with the holy sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I offer them for all the intentions of
your sacred heart: the salvation of souls, reparation for sin, the reunion of all Christians. I offer them for the
intentions of our bishops and of all the apostles of prayer, and in particular for those recommended by our
Holy Father this month.

Act of Contrition
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended thee and I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of
heaven and the pains of hell, but most of all because they offend thee, my God, who are all good and deserving
of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of thy grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my
life.

APOSTLES 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.

The Memorare
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who to your protection, implored
your help or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly to you, O Virgin of
Virgins, my mother; to you I come, before I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions, but in Your mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Suscipe
Take and receive, O Lord, my liberty.
Take all my will, my mind, my memory.
All things I hold, and all I own, are thine.
Thine was the gift, to thee I all resign,
Do thou direct and govern all, and sway,
Do what thou will, Command and I obey.
Only thy grace, thy love on me bestow.
These make me rich, all else I will forego.

Prayer for Generosity

Dearest Lord,
Teach me to be generous.
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost
To fight and not to heed the wounds
To toil and not to seek for rest
To labor and not to ask for reward
Save that of knowing that
I am doing Your most holy will. Amen.
