Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity


Here are the readings for the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, May 30, 2010:

Proverbs 8: 22-31
Psalm 8: 4-9
Romans 5: 1-5
John16: 12-15

Here's a short article about the Holy Trinity, the three persons of the one God in whose name we are baptized: Father, Son and Spirit. If it is difficult to understand how we can speak of the three distinct divine persons united in one Being ... remember the difference between a Mystery and a puzzle. A puzzle is a problem with a solution. A Mystery is a reality in which we live, of which our awareness may deepen over time, but may not be fully explained or understood in our earthly lifetimes.
  • What qualities or names might you associate with each Person of the Trinity?
  • How do you experience each of the Divine Persons in your own life?
There are no RCIA sessions this weekend; have a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend!

  1. I think the Opening Prayer for mass on Trinity Sunday is a clear and simple one:

    Father,
    you sent your Word to bring us truth
    and your Spirit to make us holy.
    Through them we come to know the mystery of your life.
    Help us to worship you, one God in three Persons, by proclaiming and living our faith in you.
    Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
