Let us pray...

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen...
The 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 decended into hell.
On the third day He rose again from the dead.
He ascended into Heaven and is seated
at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty,
from whence 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 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. And lead us not, into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen...

Three Hail Mary's

The Second Luminous Mystery

The Miracle at the Wedding at Cana


The Miracle at the Wedding Feast at Cana: Mary seeing that the host of the wedding was dismayed because they were running out of wine, asked Jesus to help them. Jesus turned barrels of water into the finest wine. The guests were amazed because usually the best wine was served first, but they commented that the best wine was served last. Jesus did this as the beginning of His signs, in Cana, in Galilee, and so revealed His glory, and His disciples began to believe in Him. (John 2:11)

The Last Supper and the Holy Eucharist: While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to His disciples said, "Take this all of you and eat it; this is My body, which will be given up for you." Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to His disciples, saying, "Drink from it, all of you, for this is My blood, the blood of the new and everlasting covenant, which shall be shed for you, so that sins may be forgiven. Do this in memory of Me. (Matthew 26:26)

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of
