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 let us not fall into temptation: and deliver us from all evil. Amen.

Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace; the Lord is with Thee; blessed art Thou amongst 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.

Glory Be
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost, as it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, world without end. 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 Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell; on the third day He rose from the dead; He ascended into heaven, sits 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 Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

Morning Offering
O Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer Thee my prayers, works, joys and sufferings of this day for all the intentions of Thy Sacred Heart, in union with holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world, in reparation for my sins, and in particular, for the general and missionary intentions of this month.

Brief act of consecration to Jesus through Mary
I, (N...), a faithless sinner, renew and ratify today in Thy hands, O Immaculate Mother, the vows of my Baptism; I renounce forever Satan, his pomp's and works; and I give myself entirely go Jesus Christ the Incarnate Wisdom, to carry my cross after Him all the days of my life, and to be more faithful to Him than I have ever been before. In the presence of all the heavenly court I choose Thee this day, for my Mother and Mistress. I deliver and consecrate to Thee, as Thy slave, my body and soul, my goods, both interior and exterior, and even the value of all my good actions, past, present and future; leaving to Thee the entire and full right of disposing of me, and all that belongs to me without exception, according to thy good pleasure, for the greater glory of God in time and in eternity.

Consecration to the Immaculate heart of Mary
O Immaculate Heart of Mary, full of kindness, Show Thy love unto us. O Mary, may the flame of Thy Heart descend upon all men. We love The infinitely. Imprint true love into our hearts, so that we may have a continuous desire towards Thee. O Mary, meek and humble of heart, Remember us when we are in sin, Heal us, through Thy Immaculate and maternal Heart, of all spiritual evil. Grant us that we may always preserve the kindness of Thy motherly Heart, and that we may be converted by the Flame of Thy Heart. Amen.
