  Our Response to God 

*Profession of Faith                            The Apostles’ Creed                      

I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. And 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 into hell. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven,      and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty.  From there he will come 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 the life everlasting. Amen  

*Hymn of Response            “Children of the Heavenly Father”   -vv. 1, 3, 4; Hymn #23

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come,  thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our  debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.
