Episcopalian
Christians are.....
Members of the Body of
Christ who by water and the Holy Spirit have received forgiveness of sins
and have been raised to the new life of grace. As Christ's body we
live in Baptismal Covenant with one another promising to:
Continue in the
apostles' teaching and fellowship in the breaking of bread and the
prayers.......
Persevere in
resisting evil, and, whenever we fall into sin repent and return to the
Lord.......
Proclaim by word and
example the God news of God in Christ........
Seek and serve Christ
in all persons, loving our neighbor as ourselves........
Striving for justice
and peace among all people, and respecting the dignity of every human
being.........
(Book of Common Prayer - Baptismal Covenant, p. 304)
'Glory to God, whose
power working in us can do more than we could ask or imagine, Glory to God
in the Church and in Christ Jesus our Lord, now and forever.' |
