A Word from Your Pastor - May 31 Trinity Sunday

Dear Parishioners:

The Sunday of the Most Holy Trinity celebrates the most intimate knowledge we have of Who God IS.  St. Paul tells us that through merely human knowledge, we can come to know that there is a God and that He IS One God.  But the Triune Mystery can only be known because the Son of God has revealed it.  Jesus reveals the Father and the Father and the Son send the Spirit so that we may be caught up into the Mystery of Love and Unity that is shared among the Three Divine Persons.  To know God as He IS will be the Joy we will experience in the next life.  Even now, we can know something of Him and of each unique Person of the Trinity.

Look at Abba, the Father, as Jesus reveals Him.  Who is God for you?  

Look at the Son, Jesus, Who has come to live among us and Who has taken our human nature into the very Reality of God.  Who do you say that Jesus is?  

Look at the Holy Spirit, Who offers us the entry into the life of grace.  How are the gifts of the Spirit operating in your life?  

How does your life reveal the Truth of the Trinity?

This weekend, the Diocese of Columbus welcomes six new priests into the ranks of the presbyterate, ordained Saturday, May 30, at St. Paul Church in Westeville: Father Anthony Davis, Father Sean Dooley, Father Tom Gardner, Father Michael Hartge, Father Brian O'Connor and Father Nicola Ventura.  Please pray for that their first experiences of ministry will serve to lead them to a fruitful time in the vineyard of the Lord.


We offer congratulations to all who graduated this week.  May your accomplishments of today lead to a brighter tomorrow.
