Homily

Nicene Creed

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,

All bow at the following words up to and including: and became man.

and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scripture He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit the Lord the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen

Thank you for continuous support.

We celebrate this Mass with each other, with the Trinity of our faith and with the

Universal Catholic Church throughout the world. We are fortunate that we are able to

gather and celebrate together through the newest technology of live streaming and

desire to once again be able to gather in our worship sites of St. Isidore and St. Elizabeth

of Hungary once the pandemic has passed. We invite you to join our efforts to keep our

churches financially secure, our staff employed, our clergy available, and our properties

maintained.
