Solemnity of the Holy Trinity - June 11, 2017

Brothers and Sisters,
Understanding the concept of the Trinity has never been easy. In fact, the church struggled with the idea of one God in three persons for some time in its history. We may not entirely grasp the theology, but we can understand the single, clear message revealed in the Hebrew scriptures and the Gospel. We are deeply loved and encountered by a God who is with us and is shown to us in many ways and through many faces, and we are never alone. 
The life and teachings of Jesus reveal to us that God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are a community of persons who live together as one in a perfect unity of life and love with one another. We are called to live with this generous reality and to share it with one another.  My prayer for you is that we all respond generously to that call!
