Faith

  
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth.   I believe 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, died and was buried.  He descended to the dead.  On the third day, He rose again.  He ascended to Heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.  He 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.
