Trinity Sunday, May 30 & 31

Trinity Sunday

May 30 & 31

On this solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, the focus is not so much on who the three Persons of the Trinity are but rather on who we are as God’s people in relation to the Holy Trinity.  For God has sought us out and saved us through Jesus Christ, and given us a Spirit of adoption, so that we might call on God’s name.  Let us pray today in thanksgiving for this wonderful gift of the love of God, (Father, Son and Holy Spirit).

Pentecost Sunday

As we gather today for this celebration of Pentecost Sunday,  we celebrate that the Spirit of the Lord descends with God’s sevenfold gifts of wisdom, and understanding, right judgment, courage, knowledge, reverence and wonder.  Let us all take the time to listen to the urgings of the Holy Spirit, and pray in gratitude for all that God has done and will yet do through His Church, God’s Holy People.

Ascension of the Lord / 7th Sunday of Easter

May 16 & 17

Celebration of the Ascension of the Lord

7^th Sunday of Easter

The readings from today show us the mission that Jesus left for each of us.  The first reading and the Gospel tell the story of the ascension into heaven of Jesus.  The message is clear for all of us left both at the time of Christ and today.  Jesus said, “Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature…”  The call to each of us is one of humility, gentleness and bearing with one another as we do our part to proclaim the Word of God in our lives.
