Our Father

When we consider God as our Father, that means that we also consider other people as our brothers or sisters.
It is really difficult to describe God. We use symbols or pictures to describe Him. We use heaven.

Hallowed be Thy Name

Some people do not know who God is. So, they do not respect Him. Let us try to  help other people to know about God and to love Him.

Forgive us our trespasses

Our sins can hurt people. When we commit sins and are sorry for it, God forgives us and we promise not to sin again.

As we forgive those who trespass against us

God forgives our sins if we also forgive others.

There are ties when we are tempted to do wrong. We ask God to help us to be strong so that we will not do wrong.
