PROFESSION OF FAITH

℟. 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 while saying:)

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 Scriptures.

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.
