  The Apostles' Creed, Ecumenical Version (No. 882)


I believe in God the Father Almighty,
     maker 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, dead, and buried;*
     the third day he rose from the dead;
     he ascended into heaven,
          and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
     from thence he shall come to judge the quick 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.

     and will come again to judge the living and the dead.
