The Modern Creed

Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is one true church, apostolic and universal, whose Holy faith, let us now declare:

We believe in God the Father, infinite in wisdom, power and love, whose mercy is over all His works, and whose will, is ever directed to his children’s good.

We believe in Jesus Christ, Son of God and Son of man, the gift of the Father’s unfailing

grace, the ground of our hope, and the promise of our deliverance from sin and death.

We believe in the Holy Spirit as the divine presence in our lives, whereby we are kept in

perpetual remembrance of the truth of Christ and find strength and help in time of need.

We believe that this faith should manifest itself in the service of love as set forth in the

example of our blessed Lord, to the end that the kingdom of God may come upon the earth.

Amen.
