Newsletter Feast of the Most Holy Trinity / May 31st 2026

Living in the Heart of the Trinity

This Sunday, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. It is a day when we turn our minds and hearts toward the great mystery of our faith: that God is not a solitary being, but a communion of love—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Often, when we think of the Trinity, we get caught up in trying to “solve” the mystery. We look for analogies—the clover, the sun, or the nature of water—to explain how three can be one. But the Trinity is not a puzzle to be solved; it is a life to be   entered into.

St. John tells us simply that “God is love.” If God is love, He must exist in relationship. You cannot have love without a lover, a beloved, and the love that flows between them. In the Trinity, we see the perfect model of community. The Father pours Himself out to the Son; the Son returns that love to the Father; and the Holy Spirit is the very bond of that eternal, life-giving affection.

What does this mean for our parish family?

It means that we were created in the image of this communion. We are not meant to live as isolated individuals, but to be a reflection of the Trinity here on earth. Every time we choose kindness over judgment, every time we serve our neighbour, and every time we gather as a parish to celebrate the Eucharist, we are living out our Trinitarian vocation.

As we celebrate this feast, let us ask the Holy Trinity to dwell more deeply within us. Let us pray that our parish may be a place where the love of the Father, the grace of the Son, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit are not just words we recite at the end of Mass, but the very heartbeat of our daily lives.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now,

and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
