THE DEVIL’S ADVOCATE RETURNS.  Can you take him on?  Join us for this special evening dedicated to the Second Section of the Creed—i.e., The Incarnation. What is it? What does it mean for us in Salvation history? How do we become the Sons and Daughters of God through it?  How do we, as Catholics, defend it?  This mystery is central to Catholic faith because it fulfills God’s promise of salvation, allowing Christ to redeem humanity through His life, death, and resurrection. By taking on flesh, Christ not only restores man’s relationship with God but also elevates human dignity, providing the perfect model of holiness and obedience.  Join us for an exploration of this central mystery of the Symbolum Nicænum:

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through Him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
He came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.

Et in unum Dóminum Iesum Christum,
Fílium Dei unigénitum,
et ex Patre natum ante ómnia sæcula.
Deum de Deo, lumen de lúmine,
Deum verum de Deo vero,
génitum, non factum, consubstantiálem Patri:
per quem ómnia facta sunt.
Qui propter nos hómines et propter nostram salútem
descéndit de cælis.
Et incarnátus est de Spíritu Sancto
ex María Vírgine, et homo factus est.
