WHAT IS FAITH?
Faith is a GIFT of GOD.
Faith is certainty about God and
what he says to us.
Faith leads to good deeds of
Christian love.
Faith can grow in us when we listen
to the word of God and pray.

CREED
THE
THE APOSTLES’ CREED
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord.
He was born of the Virgin Mary.
He 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, and is seated at the right hand of
the Father.
He will come again 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.
