  Sermon

 

* Hymn of the Day 480  O Bread of Life from Heaven

 

* Apostles’ Creed

God has made us his people through our Baptism into Christ.  Living together in trust and hope, we confess our faith:

 

I believe in God, the Father almighty,

creator of heaven and earth.

 

I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s 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 to the dead.

                    On the third day he rose again;

                    he ascended into heaven,

                    he is seated at the right hand of the Father,

                    and 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 live everlasting.  Amen.

Create in me a clean heart, O God,

and uphold me with your free spirit.
