Sunday, May 27, 2018 we celebrate the Solemnity of The Holy Trinity. In Sunday’s Gospel, Matthew 28:16-20 we hear the following:
“Then Jesus approached and said to [his disciples], ‘…And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.’”
“God accompanied those who responded to the call in a more immediate way. Now, with the coming of the Holy Spirit, God accompanies us in the most intimate way. The mystery of the Holy Trinity–three, but One–reveals the importance of relationship. The intimate relationship between Father, Son, and Spirit is an essential part of God’s identity. From the beginning of time, God has been in relationship. God has never been alone.”

The Mystery of the Most Holy Trinity
The mystery of the Most Holy Trinity is the central mystery of Christian faith and life. It is the mystery of God in himself. It is therefore the source of all the other mysteries of faith, the light that enlightens them. It is the most fundamental and essential teaching in the “hierarchy of the truths of faith.” The whole history of salvation is identical with the history of the way and the means by which the one true God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, reveals himself to men “and reconciles and unites with himself those who turn away from sin.”
