Our Symbol of Faith is a proclamation of all that we believe and profess. In our Byzantine Liturgy (St. John Chrysostom or St. Basil the Great), we chant the Creed to proclaim what we believe. The Nicene Creed is our symbol of faith. It is named after the Council of Nicaea.
The Nicene Creed draws its formation from the first two ecumenical Councils (325 and 381 A.D.). The first part of the Creed was written during the First Ecumenical Council held in Nicaea, Asia Minor, in A.D. 325. The second part of the Creed — I believe in the Holy Spirit — was written during the Second Ecumenical Council held in Constantinople in A.D. 381. A number of renowned Eastern saints were present at the first Council in 325. These included: Athanasius the Great; Nicholas of Myra; Spyridon of Trimythous; Alexander of Alexandria, and Paphnutius of Egypt, along with Constantine the Great who convened the Council.

“Take up your mat and walk.” Our Lord can make us well, and it is always His will that we are able to walk, spiritually speaking. When we unite ourselves to His will we can bring healing to this world. Is He calling you or someone you know to do so by a vocation to the monastic life, the diaconate in Christ or the priesthood?
