The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity

This Sunday is the Feast of the Holy Trinity. The Trinity is difficult concept to explain to adults, let alone students. God, who reveals himself in three persons: God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit. God the Father, out of love for the world, sent his Son into the world in order to save it. Through the death and resurrection of the Son, we have been given the gift of the Holy Spirit. As three persons, God acts always as a God of love; he does not condemn the world but acts to save it.

The Sign of the Cross

Catholic people make the Sign of the Cross at the beginning of prayers, when they bless themselves with holy water, at the beginning of Mass. Whenever, Christian people make the Sign of the Cross, they are recalling a central mystery of our faith that expresses what they believe about God. 

What do Catholic believe about God that is expressed in the Sign of the Cross? They believe in the Holy Trinity: one God who is three Persons—God the Father, Jesus the son, and the Holy Spirit. At the heart of our understanding of the Holy Trinity is the confidence that God loves us.

Glory Be to the Father (Doxology)

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.
