I thought I would list some traditional Catholic prayers here, in case anyone desires to use one. Since this is a weight loss support group, in addition to being a spiritual support group, I thought I'd start with the meal blessings. I have included the Latin version as well, where available (I am not a Latin scholar, so I can't do a proper translation. Google Translate can only do so much...). Enjoy!

    Prayer After Meals / Agimus tibi gratias

    We give Thee thanks for all Thy benefits, O Almighty God, Who livest and reignest forever. And may the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

    Latin Version: Agimus tibi gratias
    Agimus tibi gratias, omnipotens Deus, pro universis beneficiis tuis, qui vivis et regnas in saecula saeculorum. Fidelium animae, per misericordiam Dei, requiescant in pace. Amen.

    Act of Faith / Actus Fidei

    O my God! I firmly believe that Thou art one God in three Divine persons, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; 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 which the Holy Catholic Church teaches, because Thou hast revealed them, who canst neither deceive nor be deceived

    Latin Version: Actus Fidei
    Domine Deus, firma fide credo et confiteor omnia et singula quæ sancta ecclesia Catholica proponit, quia tu, Deus, ea omnia revelasti, qui es aeterna veritas et sapientia quae nec fallere nec falli potest. In hac fide vivere et mori statuo. Amen.
