At the Saviour’s command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to say:

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.
Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil,
graciously grant peace in our days,
that, by the help of your mercy,
we may be always free from sin
and safe from all distress,
as we await the blessed hope
and the coming of our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
For the Kingdom, the power and the glory are yours, now and forever.

Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your Apostles:


Peace I leave you, my peace I give you;
look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church,
