seated at the right hand of God
the Father almighty; from there
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 forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body, and
life everlasting. Amen.
The 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, 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.

reparation for sins, the reunion of
all Christians,
and in particular for the intentions
of the Holy Father this month.
Amen.
Act of Faith
O my God, I firmly believe that
you are one God in three divine
Persons, Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit. I believe that your divine Son
became man and died for our sins
and that he will come to judge the
living and the dead. I believe these
