As a child, the prayer that I first learned to recite is the Our Father. What Catholic prayer or prayers did you first learn to recite? :gopray2:
 
The Sign of the Cross was the first that I learned to recite.
 
I’ve known the Our Father and the “Bless us, O Lord…” prayers since before I knew what the words art and bounty meant.
 
Hail Mary and I knew the Our Father as a protestant. Before I was Catholic and when we would go to Catholic Mass, I knew to end the Our Father at “deliver us from evil.”
 
I don’t think it’s a Catholic prayer, but the first one I remember:

Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord my soul to take.
 
  • Grace before meals
  • Guardian Angel
  • Our Father
  • Hail Mary
The most recent prayer I’ve learned, and LOVE LOVE LOVE:
Hail, Holy Queen!
Right before that was the Divine Mercy Chaplet. <3

All 4 of the above, not sure which came first but knew them all as far back as I can remember. God Bless, Memaw
 
Our Father, grace before meals (I say it nearly the same as my Lutheran father, his was slightly different).
 
Can’t remember which exactly but any one of these: Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be, Apostles’ Creed
 
The Hail Mary and sign of the cross.

Not to be sacreligous, I was very young but:

I wondered why Mary had fruit in her loom.🤷
