Act of Contrition:

O my Lord, Jesus Christ, true God and true man, our creator and Redeemer, we repent with severe pain in our hearts for having offended three, because Thou art our God, our Lord, and our Father, whom we love above all things.

Daily Prayer of Offering:

O Sweet Jesus!

BUNYING SANTO NINO, KAMI’S NAGSASAYA
