"We believe in God, who made the world, loves it and smiles upon it.

We believe in Jesus Christ, who has shown us the human face of God, and a love that refused to be limited, who calls us to a life that even death cannot end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit through whom God reaches us, surprising, prompting and questioning us; who is the life breath of creation; and the source of nurture, humour and hope.

We believe in ourselves as people made in the divine image, capable of great creativity and great destruction, but called to choose between them.

We believe that Christ leads us now, calling us to a life that is absurd by the standards of the world; calling us to resist evil, including anything that would degrade or destroy another and to create and protect love, justice, freedom and peace."

(Put together by a small Lutheran Church in Canada... Anyone know which one?)

From a netfriend:

This came from the Holy Cross Lutheran Church, Newmarket, Ontario, a town about fifty minutes due north of Toronto. Bishop Spong shared this on his website.

Hope this helps!
