| What I Believe About Jesus Christ | |
| I believe Jesus Christ was the son of God and born of the Virgin Mary. he taught the word of Christianity. Christ performed many miracles from turning water to wine, to healing the blind. He was crucified on the cross to save us from our sins. He rose from the dead, to give us eternal life. | |

| What I Believe About Humankind | |
| I believe humankind is imperfect, and therefore in need of a perfect God. Humanity is cruel, hurtful, and sinful, yet God forgives us. Humanity is a creature of God created in God's image with freewill. Sometimes we choose the wrong path, but we find our way back to God. | |

I believe the Church is the worship place for God. The Church is one big, Family. The Church is the body of Christ. It helps out charities. It spreads the Word of the Lord. |
