Apart from weddings and funerals, I am not a churchgoer, but I was at a service today and the Lord's Prayer was said. Now, I've not said it since primary school, but it came flooding back, except I said "Forgive us our debts" as the rest of the congregation said "Forgive us our trespasses". Has it changed over the years, or was my primary school out of line with everyone else?

In my experience trespasses is a catholic thing (we said trespasses at school RC school) Debts is a Church of Scotland thing (said at Brownie services in cos church))

Normal London primary back in the 60s, in fact the catholics had to leave the room for prayers on some days and go to the catholic church down the road.
We always said trespasses everyday in assembly, never heard debts before.
