THE SACRAMENT OF BAPTISM
Leader: These children have now been received into the one holy catholic and apostolic
church through baptism. God has made them members of the household of God. See
what love the Father has for us, that we should be called children of God, and so we
are. Let us welcome the newly baptized.

* THE AFFIRMATION OF FAITH A Brief Statement of Faith
Presbyterian Church (USA)
In a broken and fearful world
the Spirit gives us courage
to pray without ceasing,
to witness among all peoples to Christ as Lord and Savior,
to unmask idolatries in church and culture,
to hear the voices of peoples long silenced,
and to work with others for justice, freedom, and peace.
In gratitude to God, empowered by the Spirit,
we strive to serve Christ in our daily tasks
and to live holy and joyful lives,
even as we watch for God’s new heaven and new earth,
praying, Come, Lord Jesus!
With believers in every time and place,
we rejoice that nothing in life or in death
can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. Amen.
