The Catholic, and Nicene Creed

This is a beautiful reminder of the catholicity of the Christian faith. The original video comes from YouTube (link here), but I have included it for you to download as well by clicking the link in the blog post title. This reading of the Nicene Creed, which dates back over a 1,000 years in the the Christian church, was recorded at Trinity Lutheran Church, Klein, TX during the March 4, 2012 church services by three members of Trinity as part of Lutheran Schools week.

These three members, and students (former and present) are: Mr. Erich Klenk, 97 years old, confirmed in 1928, past Chairman of the congregation, charter member of the Men’s Club in 1946, and Trinity’s oldest member; Lyle Lovett, great grandson of Trinity founding father Adam Klein, confirmed in 1971, singer/songwriter, and winner of four Grammys; Erin Pali, class of 2016 and current 4th grade student of  Trinity.

This faith, this ancient faith, this faith that will continue to the future, is true and catholic. It is beyond you. It is centered on Jesus Christ and the considerable, all-consuming love He has for His creation. May this bless you as much as it blessed me.
