Code
of Angelicum
As Angelican who is a gospel person in word, thought and deed,
I ordain myself thus:
I am a believer in God, I honor his name and I live for all
that he stands for.
I am truthful and honest even though those around me lie,
cheat and steal.
I am fair to all in the midst of unfairness and un justice.
I am loyal to those I am committed to even if it is so easy
to betray them.
I love those whom I am bound to love and I respect the rights
of all those who come my way.
I am accountable for my behavior and I refuse to blame the
world for my failures and shortcomings.
I work for the betterment of mankind by being of service to
others.
I choose the path of excellence over the quick and easy road
of mediocrity.
I always give my best though I may not always succeed in what
I may have set up to do.
I discipline my mind and my body, for success without discipline
is impossible.
I shield my name from dishonor and shame.
I hold my words as sacred as my honor, and when I give it,
I shall never break it.
I respect the life of nature around me and defend it from
abuse and destruction.
I say no to what is wrong even when those around me are saying
yes, if it means I must alone to do what is right, then stand
alone I will.
This is my conviction!
This is my value commitment! |
