THE OLD ROMAN CREED
AS QUOTED BY TERTULLIAN (c. 200)
De Virg. Vel.
Believing in one God Almighty, maker of the world,
and His Son, Jesus Christ, born of the Virgin Mary,
crucified under Pontius Pilate, on the third day brought to life from the dead, received in heaven, sitting now at the right hand of the Father, will come to judge the living and the dead who has sent from the Father the Holy Ghost. to govern believers through resurrection of the flesh.
Latin Text (ca. A.D. 700)
Credo in Deum Patrem omnipotentem; Creatorem coeli et terrae.
Et in Jesum Christum, Filium ejus unicum, Dominum nostrum; qui conceptus est de Spiritu Sancto, natus ex Maria virgine; passus sub Pontio Pilato, crucifixus, mortuus, et sepultus; descendit ad inferna; tertia die resurrexit a mortuis; ascendit ad coelos; sedet ad dexteram Dei Patris omnipotentis; inde venturus (est) judicare vivos et mortuos.
Credo in Spiritum Sanctum; sanctam ecclesiam catholicam; sanctorum communionem; remissionem peccatorum; carnis resurrectionem; vitam oeternam. Amen.
The reference to Saints is in neither so it had to have been added later.
By the way, the definition of a Saint is a human soul who now resides in Heaven. All believers are destined to become Saints, eventually, but I still don't believe that they have better access to God's ear or hold more sway than I do.

Perhaps your Latin is rusty, but "sanctorum communionem" means "communion of saints."
