January 11 Our Father who art in heaven.What does this mean? Here God encourages us to believe that he is truly our father and we are his children.We therefore are to pray to him with complete confidence just as children speak to their loving father.
January 18 Hallowed be thy name.What does this mean?Gods name certainly is holy in itself, but we ask in this prayer that we may keep it holy.
January 25 Thy kingdom come.What does this mean?Gods kingdom comes indeed without our praying for it, but we ask in this prayer that it may come also to us.
February 1 Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. What does this mean?The good and gracious will of God is surely done without our prayer, but we ask in this prayer that it may be done also among us.
February 8 Give us this day our daily bread. What does this mean?God gives daily bread, even without our prayer, to all people though sinful, but we ask in this prayer that he will help us to realize this and to receive our daily bread with thanks.
February 15 And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. What does this mean?We ask in this prayer that our Father in heaven would not hold our sins against us and because of them refuse to hear our prayer.
February 22 Ash Wednesday.No class.Must attend the 7:00 p.m. service at FirstLutheranChurch.
February 29 -[meaning continued]And we pray that he would give us everything by grace, for we sin every day and deserve nothing but punishment.So we on our part will heartily forgive and gladly do good to those who sin against us.
March 7 And lead us not into temptation.What does this mean?God tempts no one to sin, but we ask in this prayer that God would watch over us and keep us
March 14 [meaning continued]so that the devil, the world, and our sinful self may not deceive us and draw us into false belief, despair, and other great and shameful sins.And we pray that even though we are so tempted, we may still win the final victory.

March 28 For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever.Amen.What does Amen mean?Amen means Yes, it shall be so.We say Amen because we are certain that such petitions are pleasing to our Father in heaven are heard by him.For he himself has commanded us to pray in this way and has promised to hear us.
