Profession of Faith: (Nicene Creed)
We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, of all that is seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten not made, one in Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation, he came down from heaven; by the power of the Holy Spirit he was born of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered, died and was buried. On the third day he rose again in fulfillment of the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

KING SOOPERS CARD UPDATE
FRIDAY MORNING PRAYER
Recently, King Soopers changed the internal process for funding their Community Rewards Program. Previously our church members were helping fund our LOC annual
budget every time they used their King Soopers Gift Card. This is no longer the case. GOOD NEWS! If you shop at King Soopers and want to be sure that your purchases continue to provide a financial benefit to LOC, let me know and I will provide all the necessary setup to make that happen. Call me, Mark Stenson, and leave a message if I don’t answer. I’ll get back with you and work out all the details.
Ever felt that way? Caring communication with others is a basic human need. Stephen Ministers can help meet that need. For a listening ear, contact the Church Office at 303/772-3785 or call Chuck Cooper.
SPECIAL THANKS FROM OUTREACH
The Church Office will be closed on Monday, September 2nd to celebrate Labor Day. We will be back in the office Tuesday, September 3rd. As always we may be reached in the case of a pastoral emergency by calling 720/378-3590.

each other, to pray for all those who need our prayer. We plan to start at 6:30am, and be done by 7:00am. No experience required! Just come with an openness of heart and mind and spirit. If you have questions, please talk to Fr. Teri in the Church Office.
