Confession of Sin

Lord Jesus, give us to die with you that we may rise to new life, for we wish to be dead and buried to sin, selfishness, and the world. O Lord, there is much ill about us - crucify it; much of the flesh within us - mortify it. Let us reckon our old lives dead because of the crucifixion. Grant us more and more of the resurrection life: may it rule us, may we walk in its power, and be strengthened through its influence. Now, as we quiet ourselves to confess our faults, visit us by your Spirit that we might be free from every wrong desire.

Affirmation of Faith: 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 men 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.

*catholic here refers to the church universal, God’s people in all times and places.
