We know they asked the Messiah to teach them to pray and that He taught them the Our Father. None of this indicates they only said the Our Father.

I'm glad you made that clear. I was beginning to wonder with the rote form of worship in Roman Catholicism if ya'll only said the Lord's Prayer/Our Father, Hail Mary and Rosary and would believe the disciples only said one or two prayers.

I see Catholic tradition as closer to Jewish tradition, in that both have liturgical prayers and personal prayers. A close reading of the New Testament convinces me that the apostles were familiar with, and participated in, Jewish liturgical prayers as well as personal prayers related to specific events.
