George-the Apostles’ Creed's first line begins with “I believe in God, the father…” Credo “I believe” in Latin means "I give my heart.” The word has the same linguistic root as love. May we all find our hearts drawn not just in ideas or beliefs but in trust and love of the God the Creed calls “Father.”

SLIDES GEORGE READ IN OUR GATHERING

The Creed is a statement of faith, not of beliefs. There are many beliefs, but there is ultimately only one faith: faith in God. May the Creed help you find new meaning in the words and—deeper than words that divide—the faith that unites all human beings.   -David Steindl-Rast
