I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven

and earth; And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord:

who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the 

VirginMary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified,

dead and buried; the third day he rose from the dead; he

ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of

God the Father Almighty; and will come again to judge

the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the

holy catholic church, the communion of saints,

the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body,

and life everlasting. Amen.


                       

We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker

of heaven and earth, of all that is, 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 all

things were made. For us and for our salvation he came

down from heaven, was incarnate of  the Holy Spirit and

the Virgin Mary and became truly human. 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, the giver of life, who proceeds

from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and

the Son is worshiped and glorified, who was spoken

through the prophets. We believe in one holy catholic

and apostolic church. We acknowledge one baptism for

the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of

the dead, and the life of the world to come.   Amen.
