The Nicene Creed is the most widely used creed in church liturgies around the world. This creed has stood the test of time and is still used in Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican, and many Protestant churches. The authors of this creed took a strong stand against those who denounced the full deity of Christ. It proclaims Christ to be “God of God, Light of Light, Very God of very God; Begotten, not made; Being of one substance with the Father.” The Nicene Creed was first written at the First Council of Nicaea (AD 325) and edited at First Council of Constantinople (AD 381). This mini-book contains 70 days of handwriting practice (this will last you about one semester). The translation used is from the Book of Common Prayer. The handwriting font used is a ball-and-stick font.

Karen –
My family has been using this copywork this summer as a means toward memorizing the Nicene creed. It has definitely been having an effect, as my son (7) is correcting our recital of the creed with what he is copying (“Holy Ghost!” “sitteth!”). I would suggest updating this to include modern versions of the words, even if the author wants to keep the traditional version (which I also like). “Holy Spirit” and “sits” would be suggested modernizations.
