Apostles Creed
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 was buried.
   He descended into hell.
   On the third day He rose again from the dead.
   He ascended into heaven
   and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty.
   From thence He will 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.

There are many translations/versions of this creed, all very similar in wording in English. We have chosen the wording we are most familiar with having been raised in Lutheran churches.
