  Mealtime Prayers 

Before Breakfast

 Most Holy Trinity, have mercy on us.  O Lord, wash away our sins.  O Master, pardon our transgressions.  Holy One, visit and heal our infirmities for Your name's sake. Glory to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages.  Amen.  Through the prayers of our holy fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us.  Amen.

 

After Breakfast

You are truly worthy to be called blessed, O Birthgiver of God, ever blessed and  most pure Virgin and Mother of Our God. 

 More honorable than the Cherubim, and incomparably more glorious than the Seraphim, You who in virginity gave birth to God the Word; true Mother of God, we magnify you.          

 Glory to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages.  Amen.        

Through the prayers of our holy fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us. Amen. 

  

Before Lunch

Our Father Who is in the heavens, hallowed be Your name.  Your kingdom come.  Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.  Give us this day our daily bread.  And forgive us our debts, as  we forgive our debtors.  And lead us not  into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.

 Glory to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages.  Amen.  Through the prayers of our holy fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us.  Amen.

  

After Lunch

We thank You, O Christ our God, that You have satisfied us with Your earthly gifts; deprive us not of Your heavenly kingdom, but as You came among Your disciples, O Savior, and gave them peace, come to us and save us.   

Glory to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages.  Amen. 

Through the prayers of our holy fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us.  Amen.  

  

Before Supper

The poor shall eat and be satisfied, and those who seek the Lord shall praise Him; their hearts shall live forever.

 Glory to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages.  Amen. 

Through the prayers of our holy fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us.  Amen.

 

After Supper

O Mother of God, your womb became a Heavenly Table, bearing the Heavenly Bread - Christ our God.  Whoever eats of Him shall not die, according to the word of the Nourisher of all.

        More honorable than the Cherubim, and incomparably more glorious than the Seraphim; you who in virginity gave birth to God the Word; true Mother of God, we magnify you.

        O Lord, You have made us glad by Your works; in the works of Your hands we will rejoice.  The Light of Your countenance, O Lord, has been signed upon us!  You have put joy in my heart.  We have been satisfied from Your fruits of wheat, wine and oil.  In peace I will lie down and sleep; for You alone, O Lord, make me to dwell in hope.

 Glory to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages.  Amen. 

 Through the prayers of our holy fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us.  Amen.
