Leader: We believe in one true God,

People: The Father Almighty; maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible: And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God; begotten of the Father before all worlds; Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made; being of the same substance with the Father; and by whom all things were made:

WHO FOR US MEN, AND FOR OUR SALVATION.CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN

+ + +2 AND WAS INCARNATE OF THE HOLY VIRGIN MARY, MOTHER OF GOD, BY THE HOLY GHOST AND BECAME MAN;

AND WAS CRUCIFIED FOR US IN THE DAYS OF PONTIUS PILATE, AND SUFFERED, AND DIED, AND WAS BURIED:

And the third day rose according to His will; and ascended into Heaven, and sat on the right hand of His Father; and shall come again in His great glory, to judge both the living and the dead; whose Kingdom shall have no end:

And in the one living Holy Spirit, the life-giving Lord of all, who proceeds from the Father; and who with the Father and the Son is worshipped and glorified; who spoke through the Prophets and Apostles:

And in the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church; and we confess one Baptism for the remission of sins; and look for the resurrection of the dead, and the new life in the world to come. Amen, Barekhmor.

2 Prostrate thrice while drawing the sign of the cross each time in veneration of the Incarnation of the Word.
