Holy, Holy, Holy Lord
God Almighty!
Early in the morning our song
shall rise to Thee:
Holy, Holy, Holy! merciful and
mighty!
God in Three Persons, blessed
Trinity.
Solemnity of the Most Holy
Trinity
"All three in a great dynamic of love,
are so close that
they are One God." ~ Fr. John
Foley, S. J.
Trinity Sunday, officially "The Solemnity
of the Most Holy Trinity," is one of the few feasts of the Christian Year that
celebrates a reality and doctrine rather than an event or person. On Trinity
Sunday we remember and honor the eternal God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Trinity Sunday is celebrated the Sunday after Pentecost, and lasts only one day,
which is symbolic of the unity of the Trinity. The Eastern Churches have no
tradition of Trinity Sunday, arguing that they celebrate the Trinity every
Sunday. Westerners do as well, although they set aside a special feast day for
the purpose.
“The Eucharistic gift assumes even more awesome proportions
when we reflect that the Son of God present herein is ever united, intimately
and indivisibly, with His co-Persons in the Trinity – His Eternal Father and
their mutual Spirit of Love; which means that they, too are mysteriously yet
really with Him, and consequently with us no less.
In effect, then,
the total Eucharistic mystery includes the presence
of both the Father and the Holy Spirit as an inseparable
concomitant. That is,
the Blessed Sacrament embraces the Trinitarian mystery within its
compass.”
Fr Richard Foley, S.J.
Mary and the Eucharist
"In the communion of grace with the
Trinity, man's 'living area' is broadened
and raised up to the supernatural level
of divine life." - St John Paul II
Both Excellent!
BLESSED FATHER'S DAY to all
FATHERS!
"Best wishes,
best wishes to you on your day!
I ask for you the grace to be ever closer to
your children,
allow them to grow, but be close,
close!
They need you, your presence, your closeness,
your love....
As Joseph was for Jesus, [be] the example
and the teacher of the wisdom
that is nourished by the Word of God."
Pope Francis, Father's
Day Message 2014
