"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, died, and buried; He descended into hell; on the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit; the holy Christian Church, the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen."

Apostle's Creed

We Believe:

• The Bible is the inspired Word of God
• All men are sinners separated from God, cannot save themselves, and deserve eternal punishment
• Jesus Christ, God's Son and true God, having also become true man, lived, suffered and died for the sins of all people, that we need not remain separated from God.
• Whoever repents of his sins and accepts by faith, Jesus Christ as his Savior has forgiveness of his sins and has eternal life with God.
• Therefore, each person is saved from eternal separation from God only by the grace of God Himself, through faith in Jesus Christ.
• In response to this loving gift of God, Christians will strive to live holy lives as the fruit of their faith, and together with their fellow Christians in the Church, will serve God and do His work.

I Said a Prayer for You Today

I said a prayer for you today
And know God must have heard,
I felt the answer in my heart
Although He spoke no word.

I didn't ask for wealth or fame
I know you wouldn't mind,
I asked Him to send treasures
Of a far more lasting kind,

I asked that He'd be near you
At the start of each new day,
To grant you health and blessings
And friends to share your way.

I asked for happiness for you
In all things great and small,
But it was for His loving care
I prayed the most of all.
