Jesus Christ, the only Son of God,  
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
one in Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit
he was born of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.

For our sake he was crucified
under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered, died, and was buried.

He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead,

for the forgiveness of sins

and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Instead of the Niceno-Constantinopolitan
Creed, especially during Lent and Easter Time,
the baptismal Symbol of the Roman Church,
known as the Apostles’ Creed, may be used.

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.

The day before he suffered
he took bread in his sacred hands
and looking up to heaven,
to you, his almighty Father,
he gave you thanks and praise. 
He broke the bread,
gave it to his disciples,

TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND EAT IT:
THIS IS MY BODY
WHICH WILL BE GIVEN UP FOR YOU.

When supper was ended, he took the cup. 
Again he gave you thanks and praise,
gave the cup to his disciples,
and said:

TAKE THIS, ALL OF YOU, AND DRINK FROM IT:
THIS IS THE CUP OF MY BLOOD,
THE BLOOD OF THE NEW
