| THE
APOSTLES CREED
I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only
Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of
the Holy Spirit and born of the
Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died and was buried.
He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of the
Father.
He will come to judge the living and
the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Holy Catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.

THE
NICENE CREED
Issued in 325 by the Council of Nicaea
We believe in one God,
the Father Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
and all things, seen and unseen.
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
of one being with the Father.
Through him were all things made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven;
by the power of the Holy Spirit
he became incarnate from
the Virgin Mary, and was made man.
For our sake he was crucified
under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
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.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and
giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.
With the Father and the Son he is worshipped and glorified.
He has spoken through the prophets.
We believe in one holy apostolic and catholic church,
We acknowledge one baptism and forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come.
