 Formal public and personal prayers are addressed to "Our Father in Heaven" or "Heavenly Father", and are closed in the name of Jesus Christ, followed by amen.When a prayer is given in public, it is customary for all attending to say "amen" at the prayer's conclusion.English-speaking members are encouraged to use "thee," "thou," "thy" and "thine" when addressing God, as a form of both familiarity and respect.
