The Language of Faith

The Church
The pillar and bulwark of the truth
Faith guards
The faith which was once for all delivered to the saints
She guards the memory of Father Christ’s words
It is she who  from generation to generation hands on the apostles’ confession of faith
As a mother who teaches her children to speak and so to understand and communicate
The Church our mother teaches us the language of faith 
In order to introduce us to the understanding and the life  of faith
