Pater Noster



Latin for 'our father'. Jesus was asked by his disciples to teach them to pray. Jesus taught them 'the Lord's prayer' which is 'our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those that trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen!'
This church marks the place where Jesus taught this prayer, hence the 'Pater Noster' church!
