Lord Jesus Christ, true God and true man, I am heartily sorry for having sinned against You and my neighbor. Come and help me not to sin again, and lead me into a new life. I trust in Your loving forgiveness.

Jesus of Nazareth, help us to trust and obey the will of God in the midst of hardships and trials in life. Share with us Your life in the Eucharist, and make us worthy to receive Your sacred Body and Blood.
Lord God, our Father, help us to walk the way of Your commandments and to serve You in our neighbors. Amen.
