Authorized Change to Number 883 in The United Methodist Hymnal

There has been an authorized change to number 883, "A Statement of Faith of The United Church of Canada," in The United Methodist Hymnal. This affirmation dates from 1968, and it was added to our present hymnal in that form.

In 1998, the United Church of Canada's General Council amended this creed by adding a line. The newly added line is noted in bold upper-case letters below, and only a few of the lines are reproduced to show the placement. Anyone using the creed from The United Methodist Hymnal is free to make this change. The United Methodist Publishing House is aware of the change, but because so many copies of the hymnal are already in use, the original, present form of the creed may be retained until a new hymnal is published.

We are called to be the church:
to celebrate God's presence,
TO LIVE WITH RESPECT IN CREATION,
to love and serve others . . .
