*AFFIRMATION OF FAITH “Apostles’ Creed” No. 881
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
Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried, the
third day he rose from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right
hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick 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 the life everlasting.
Amen.
*GLORIA PATRI
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the
beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. Amen.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come;

And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the
kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever. Amen.
