SUNDAY
A Prayer to the most Holy Trinity
GLORY be to the Father, who, by his power hath brought us forth from nothing, and created us to his own likeness. Glory be to the Son, who, by his mercy, hath delivered us from hell, and opened heaven for us. Glory be to the Holy Ghost, who by his grace, which we every day receive from him, hath sanctified us. Glory, honour, and praise be to the three persons of the holy and undivided Trinity, now and forever. We adore thee, O Holy Trinity, we worship thee; we most humbly give thee thanks for having revealed to us this glorious, this incomprehensible mystery: and for granting to those who shall persevere until death in the faithful profession of it, the reward of beholding and enjoying in heaven what we now believe and adore upon earth, one God in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Amen.

MONDAY
A Prayer to the Holy Ghost
O SANCTIFIER of our souls! thou Spirit of love and truth! we adore thee as the principle of our eternal happiness; we thank thee as the dispenser of all heavenly favours; and we invoke thee as the source of that light and strength by which alone we can know what is good, and be enabled to practise it. Enlighten our understandings, fortify our wills, purify our hearts, regulate our movements, and make us attentive to all thy inspirations. Pardon us,thou Spirit of grace and mercy! pardon us our constant infidelities, and the shameful insensibility by which we have so often resisted the most touching impulses of grace. We are at length resolved to be no longer rebellious to it, but to obey it with such docility that we may taste those fruits, and enjoy those beatitudes, which thy sacred gifts can produce in our souls. Amen.

Virtue of the MONTH
JANUARY — FAITH
St. Teresa says that all sins spring from want of faith. She was right, for it is impossible to live estranged from God if we keep constantly before our eyes the truths of our faith, the greatness of God, the love He bears us, the benefits He has bestowed on us, and especially the work of our Redemption, the Passion of Jesus Christ, and the gift of the Most Holy Sacrament. The same effect is produced by frequently meditating on death, judgment, hell, eternity. This is why we must frequently renew the spirit of faith in ourselves, by calling to mind the eternal maxims. The saints did this, and it was thus they won their heavenly crown.

MY GOD, I believe all that the holy Church teaches me to believe, because Thou, Who art infallible truth, hast revealed it. I believe that Thou art the Creator and Lord of heaven and earth, Who eternally rewardest the just in paradise and chastisest sinners in hell. I believe that Thou art one God in essence, but three in person, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost: three in person, but one only God. I believe that God the Son, the second Person, in order to save us and redeem us from our sins, became man, and died upon the cross.

ACT of FAITH
I believe that the most holy Virgin Mary was conceived without sin, that she is truly Mother of God, and that she was ever a virgin. I believe that Jesus Christ, the third day after His death, rose again by His own power, and, after forty days, ascended to heaven, where He is seated on the right hand of the Eternal Father, equal to Him in majesty and glory. I believe that, at the last day, Jesus Christ shall come to judge all men who shall then rise from their graves. I believe that the Roman Catholic Church is the only true Church, out of which there is no redemption. I believe in the communion of the saints; that is to say. that every one of the faithful who is in a state of grace participates in the merits of all the just. I believe that God remits the sins of those who offend Him, so soon as they repent of them. I believe in the seven sacraments by means of which the grace of Jesus Christ is communicated to us. I believe the Ten Commandments of the Decalogue. I believe, finally, all that the holy Church believes. I thank Thee, O my God, for having made me a Christian, and I protest that I desire to live and die in this holy faith. Amen.
