The following prayers are going to be used in second grade as we prepare for the sacraments of Penance and Eucharist. Please say these prayers with your child every night. Your child will be tested on these prayers at the end of the year.

Act of Contrition

O my God, I am sorry for my sins

In choosing to sin and failing to do good,

I have sinned against You and Your Church.

I firmly intend, with the help of Your Son,

To make up for my sins and to love as I should.

Amen.

The Lord’s Prayer (Our Father)

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;

Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

The Hail Mary

Hail Mary, full of grace! the Lord is with thee;

Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the

Fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now

And at the hour of our death.

Amen.

The Glory Be

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the

Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,

World without end.

Amen.

Sign of the Cross

In the name of the Father,

And of the Son, and of the

Holy Spirit. Amen
