The Apostles Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of
heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his
only Son, Our Lord. He was conceived by the
power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin
Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was
crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to
the dead. On the third day he rose again. He
ascended into 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 everlasting life. Amen.

advocate, your eyes of mercy towards us; and
after this our exile show to us the blessed fruit of
your womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God.
That we may be made worthy of the promises of
Christ.
