CONFESSION OF SIN
[Adapted from the Book of Common Worship]
Almighty God, You
are rich in mercy to all those who call upon You. Hear us as we come
to You humbly confessing our sins and transgressions, and imploring
Your mercy and forgiveness. We have broken Your holy laws by our
deeds and by our words, and by the sinful affections of our hearts.
We confess before You our disobedience and ingratitude, our pride and
willfulness; and all our failures and shortcomings toward You and
toward our fellow men. Have mercy upon us, most merciful Father; And
by Your great goodness grant that we may hereafter serve and please
You in newness of life; through the merit and mediation of Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Nicene Creed
We believe in one
God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, of all things
visible and invisible.
And in one Lord
Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of his Father
before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God,
begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father; by whom
all things were made; who for us and for our salvation came down from
heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary, and
was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; he
suffered and was buried; and the third day he rose again according to
the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right
hand of the Father; and he shall come again with glory to judge both
the living and the dead; whose kingdom shall have no end.
And we believe in
the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who proceeds from the
Father and the Son; who with the Father and the Son together is
worshiped and glorified; who spoke by the prophets; and we believe in
one holy catholic and apostolic church; we acknowledge one baptism
for the remission of sins; and we look for the resurrection of the
dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
