O Almighty and merciful God, who hast commissioned Thy angels to guide and protect us, command them to be our assiduous companions from our setting out until our return; to clothe us with their invisible protection; to keep from us all danger of collision, of fire, of explosion, of fall and bruises, and finally, having preserved us from all evil, and especially from sin, to guide us to our heavenly home. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
Thanks be rendered to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for all the graces with which I have been laden in the past.
Thanks be rendered to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit for the graces with which I am laden now.
Thanks be rendered to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for the graces with which the Supreme Goodness will crown me in the future.
Amen.
Father:
The true God, One in Three and Three in One, come, let us adore.
Family:
The true God, One in Three and Three in One, come, let us adore.
Father:
Let us pray.
Almighty and everlasting God, Thou hast given to Thy servants grace for professing the true faith and acknowledging the glory of the eternal Trinity and in the power of Thy majesty to worship the Unity; grant that by steadfastness in the same faith we may evermore be defended from all adversities. Through Christ our Lord.

Be with us, O God, one and omnipotent, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Blessed are you, O Lord, in the firmament of heaven.
Family:
Praiseworthy and glorious forever.
Amen.

Glory be to the Father and to Son and to the Holy Ghost.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.

Behold me at Thy feet, O Jesus of Nazareth, behold the most wretched of creatures, who comes into Thy presence humbled and penitent! Have mercy on me, O Lord, according to Thy great mercy! I have sinned and my sins are always before Thee. Yet my soul belongs to Thee, for Thou hast created it, and redeemed it with Thy Precious Blood. Ah, grant that Thy redeeming work be not in vain! Have pity on me; give me tears of true repentance; pardon me for I am Thy child; pardon me as Thou didst pardon the penitent thief; look upon me from Thy throne in heaven and give me Thy blessing.
I believe in God…
O Christ Jesus, when all is darkness and we feel our weakness and helplessness, give us the sense of Your presence, Your love, and Your strength. Help us to have perfect trust in Your protecting love and strengthening power, so that nothing may frighten or worry us, for, living close to You, we shall see Your hand, Your purpose, Your will through all things.
Father, Your Love never fails.
Keep me from danger
and provide for all my needs.
Teach me to be thankful for Your Gifts.
Confident in Your Love,
may I be holy by sharing Your Life,
and grant me forgiveness of my sins.
May Your unfailing Love turn me from sin
and keep me on the way that leads to you.
Help me to grow in Christian love.
