of the apostles creea-because Won
believe in God the Father Almighty
Creator of heaven and earth, and in
Jesus Christ His only Son our Lord,
and in the holy Catholic Church.
IF this church served no other pur-
pose, it would be a public testimony
of your faith in God as your Creator
and Sovereign Lord. 1t would be a
proof of your belief that human
beings are not the work of chance or
the result of a blind evolution of ma
terial forces, but that they are chill
dren of God, endowed with a spiritual
and immortal soul and destined for
life, liberty and happiness not only in
this world, but in the higher world
whose blessedness eye hath not seen
nor ear heard, nor hath it entered
into the heart of man to conceive.
Because of your faith in God and
your belief in your own high dignity
as children Of God you recognize
your duty to adore God, to love and
serve HIM, to thank Him for his
favors, to petition Him for His aid,
to make reparation and atonement
for SHIN word, to fulfill the duties
of religion. As an expression of your
faith and as a perpetual witness and
reminder of these sacred duties, you
have built this temple Of worship,
and with solemn service of sacrifice
and prayer 1t is now dedicated to the
honor and glory of God"
