O my God, I firmly
believe that
thou art one
God in
three Divine
Persons,
Father, Son
and Holy Spirit.
I believe that
thy Divine Son
became man and
died for our sins,
and that he
will come to judge
the living and
the dead.
I believe these
and all the truths
that the Holy
Catholic Church teaches,
because thou
hast revealed them,
who can neither
deceive nor
be deceived.
ACT OF HOPE
O my God, relying
on thy infinite
goodness and
promises,
I hope to obtain
pardon of my
sins, the help
of thy grace,
and life everlasting
through the
merits of
Jesus Christ,
my
Lord and Redeemer.
ACT OF LOVE
O my God, I love thee
above all things,
with my whole
heart and soul,
because thou
art all
good and worthy
of all love.
I love my neighbor
as myself
for the love
of thee.
I forgive all
who have
injured me and
ask pardon of
all
whom I have
injured.
ACT OF CONTRITION
O my God, I am heartily
sorry
for having offended
thee.
I detest all
my sins because of
thy just punishments,
but most of all
because they
offend thee my God,
who art all
good and deserving
of all my love.
I firmly resolve,
with the help
of thy grace
to confess my
sins, to do penance
and to amend
my life. Amen
