Child's Prayer
Heavenly Father,
bless my parents and
all those who
love and care for me.
Help me to be
respectful and
obedient,
according to Thy will .

Thou who at every season and every

hour, in heaven and on earth, art
worshipped and glorified; O Christ our
God, who art long-suffering, merciful
and compassionate; who lovest the
just and showest mercy upon the
sinner; who callest all to salvation
through the promise of blessings to
come: O Lord, in this hour receive our
supplications, and direct our lives
according to Thy commandments.
Sanctify our souls, hallow our bodies,
correct our thoughts, cleanse our
minds; deliver us from all tribulations,
evil and distress. Compass us about
with Thy holy Angels, that guided and
guarded by them, we may attain to the
unity of the faith and to the knowledge
of Thine unapproachable glory, for
Thou art blessed unto ages of ages.
Amen.

And arose again on the third day

according to the Scriptures; And
ascended into Heaven, and sits at
the right hand of the Father; And
shall come again, with glory, to
judge both the living and the dead;
Whose kingdom shall have no end.
And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord,
the Giver of Life; Who proceeds from
the Father; Who with the Father and
the Son together is worshipped and
glorified; Who spake by the
prophets.
In One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic
Church. I confess one baptism for
the remission of sins. I look for the
resurrection of the dead, And the life
of the age to come. Amen.

I believe in one God, the Father

Almighty, Maker of Heaven
and earth, and of all things
visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the
Son of God, the Only-begotten,
begotten of the Father before all
ages; Light of Light: true God of true
God; begotten, not made; of one
essence with the Father, by Whom
all things were made; Who for us
men, and for our salvation, came
down from heaven, and was
incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the
Virgin Mary, and became man; And
was crucified for us under Pontius
Pilate, and suffered, and was buried;

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 the evil one.

6. Thou shalt not murder.
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery.
8. Thou shalt not steal.
9. Thou shalt not bear false witness
against thy neighbor.
10.Thou shalt not covet thy
neighbor's wife; thou shalt not
covet thy neighbor's house, nor
his field ... nor anything that is thy
neighbor's.

Ten Commandments
1. I am the Lord Thy God, thou shalt
have no other gods before Me.
2. Thou shalt not make for thee any
graven image or any likeness of
anything that is in heaven above,
or that is in the earth beneath, or
that is in the water under the
earth; thou shalt not bow down to
them, nor serve them.
3. Thou shalt not take the name of
the Lord thy God in vain.
4. Remember the sabbath day, to
keep it holy. Six days thou shalt
labor and do all thy work, but the
seventh day is the sabbath of the
Lord thy God.

Nativity of the Theotokos

By Your Nativity, O Most Pure Virgin,
Joachim and Anna are freed from
barrenness; Adam and Eve, from the
corruption of death.

Exaltation of the Cross

As You were voluntarily raised upon the

cross for our sake, Grant mercy to
those who are called by Your Name,
O Christ God; Make all Orthodox Christians
glad by Your power, Granting them
victories over their adversaries, By
bestowing on them the Invincible trophy,
Your weapon of Peace.

Presentation of the Theotokos

Today is the preview of the good will of

God, Of the preaching of the salvation of

Rejoice, 0 Divine Fulfillment of the
Creator's dispensation.

Nativity of Christ

Your Nativity, O Christ our God,

Has shone to the world the Light of
wisdom! For by it, those who worshipped
the stars, Were taught by a Star to adore
You, The Sun of Righteousness, And to
know You, the Orient from on High.
O Lord, glory to You!

Baptism of Christ Theophany

When Thou, O Lord, wast baptized in the

Jordan, worship of the Trinity wast made
manifest; for the voice of the Father bore
witness to Thee, calling Thee His beloved
Son. And the Spirit in the form of a dove
confirmed the truth of His word. O Christ
our God, Who hath appeared and
enlightened the world, glory to Thee.

Presentation of Jesus at the Temple

Palm Sunday

Virgin's womb, And did bless Simeon's
hands, O Christ God.
Now You have come and saved us
through love. Grant peace to all Orthodox
Christians, O only Lover of man!

By raising Lazarus from the dead before

Your passion, You did confirm the
universal Resurrection, O Christ God!
Like the children with the palms of victory,
We cry out to You, O Vanquisher of death;
Hosanna in the Highest! Blessed is He that
comes in the Name of the Lord!

Annunciation

The Ascension of Christ

Today is the beginning of our salvation,

The revelation of the eternal mystery!

Grace. Together with him let us cry to the
Theotokos: Rejoice, O Full of Grace,
The Lord is with You!

O Christ God, You have ascended in Glory,

Granting joy to Your disciples by the
promise of the Holy Spirit.

That You are the Son of God,
The Redeemer of the world!

wise By sending down upon them the
Holy Spirit Through them You drew the
world into Your net

Christ God, Revealing Your glory to Your
disciples as far as they could bear it.
Let Your everlasting Light shine upon us
sinners! Through the prayers of the
Theotokos, O Giver of Light, glory to You!

Dormition of the Theotokos

Neither the tomb, nor death could hold the

Theotokos, Who is constant in prayer and
our firm hope in her intercessions.
For being the Mother of Life,
She was translated to life by the One who
dwelt in her virginal womb.

Glory to the Father

and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit,
Now and Ever and
Unto Ages of Ages.
Amen.
Lord have mercy,
O Lord Bless!
