The Pilgrim Forum

The Pilgrim Forum is a series dedicated to sharing information and spurring thought and discussion around the basic tenets of the Catholic faith and tradition – specifically, the Apostles’ Creed. Once a semester, speakers will examine a portion of the Creed, breaking it open in thought-provoking and accessible ways which invite attendees to understand more deeply what they believe.

This series is made possible through the generosity of The Dan Ritter Family (1932 - 2019).

Pilgrim Lectures are free and open to the public, but as a breakfast lecture does require advanced registration

Apostles’ Creed

I believe
in God, the Father almighty,
Creator 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 is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty;
from there he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.
Amen.
