THE
NICENE CREED
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,
ONE IN BEING WITH THE FATHER.
THROUGH HIM ALL THINGS WERE MADE.
FOR US MEN AND FOR OUR SALVATION
HE CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN.
BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
HE WAS BORN OF THE VIRGIN MARY
AND BECAME MAN. FOR
OUR SAKE
HE WAS CRUCIFIED UNDER PONTIUS PILATE;
HE SUFFERED DIED AND WAS BURIED.
ON THE THIRD DAY HE ROSE AGAIN
IN FULFILLMENT OF 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.
WITH THE FATHER AND THE SON,
HE IS WORSHIPPED AND GLORIFIED.
HE HAS 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.

INTERCESSION
WAS LEFT UNAIDED. INSPIRED
BY THIS
CONFIDENCE,
I FLY UNTO YOU, O VIRGIN OF VIRGINS,
MY MOTHER; TO YOU I COME, BEFORE YOU I STAND,
SINFUL AND SORROWFUL. O
MOTHER OF THE WORD
INCARNATE, DESPISE NOT MY PETITIONS, BUT IN YOUR
MERCY HEAR AND ANSWER ME.
AMEN.
