AFFIRMATION OF FAITH

 

I believe in the living God,
   the nurturer of all humanity

   who creates and sustains the universe

   by infinite power and redeeming love.

 

I believe in Jesus Christ,
   the man of Nazareth, the Lord of life.

   Because of His words and works,
   His way with others,

   His use of suffering, His conquest of death,

   I know what life ought to be and what God is like.

 

I believe that the Spirit of God is present 
    with us now and always,
    and can be experienced in prayer,

    in forgiveness, in the Word, the sacraments,

    in the fellowship of the church in its diversity,
    and in all we do.
