The Nicene Creed
I believe in one God, the Father the almighty,
   maker of heaven and earth,
   of all things visible and invisible.

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
   the only Begotten Son of God,
   born of the Father before all ages.
   God from God, Light from Light,
   true God from true God,
   begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
   through him all things were made.
   For us men and for our salvation
   he came down from heaven,
   and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate
   of the Virgin Mary,
   and became man.

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
   he suffered death and was buried,
   and rose again on the third day
   in accordance with the Scriptures.
   He ascended into heaven
   and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
   He will come again in glory
   to judge the living and the dead
   and his kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
   the Lord, the giver of life,
   who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
   who with the Father and the Son
   is adored and glorified,
   who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
   I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
   and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
   and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Act of Contrition
My God,
I am sorry for my sins with all my heart.
In choosing to do wrong
and failing to do good,
I have sinned against you
whom I should love above all things.
I firmly intend, with your help,
to do penance,
to sin no more,
and to avoid whatever leads me to sin.
Our Savior Jesus Christ
suffered and died for us.
In his name, my God, have mercy.

I Confess
I confess to almighty God,
and to you, my brothers and sisters,
that I have sinned through my own fault
in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done,
and in what I have failed to do;
and I ask blessed Mary, ever virgin,
all the angels and saints,
and you, my brothers and sisters,
to pray for me to the Lord our God.
