NEW MEMBER’S INDUCTION
Profession of Faith
Let us affirm the faith.
Do you believe in God
who made you and loves you?
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
Do you believe in Jesus Christ,
your Saviour and Lord?
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.
Do you believe in the Holy Spirit,
and the continuing work of our salvation?
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.
