HYMN OF THE DAY No. 865 “Praise, My Soul, the God of Heaven”

APOSTLE’S CREED I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. 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. 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.

PRAYERS OF THE CHURCH SHARING THE PEACE C: hear our prayer. P: Lord, in your mercy, C: hear our prayer. SHARING THE PEACE P: The peace of Christ be with you always. C: And also with you.
