The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity
The Most Holy Trinity CWL Potluck Dinner
This week we return to the liturgical season
of Ordinary Time. This Sunday and next
Sunday, however, are designated as
solemnities, special days that call our
attention to central mysteries of our faith. Today, on the
first Sunday after Pentecost, we celebrate the Solemnity of
the Most Holy Trinity. This feast invites us to consider
what we believe about God, who has revealed himself to us
in the Trinity—one God in three persons.
The verses of today's Gospel come near the end of Jesus'
long discourse at the Last Supper. In the early part of this
discourse, as we saw last week on Pentecost, Jesus offers
assurances to the disciples. Even though he must leave the
disciples, he tells them that they will have a future because
of the help he will send them in the Holy Spirit. In this
section he focuses more on the shape of the future, which
will include Jesus' victory over the world that they will
share in. The disciples of Jesus cannot know the future.
They can only know that, whatever shape the future takes,
they will not have to face it alone. They have the Spirit of
Truth, who will continue to provide the teaching of Jesus
in the future.
Reading this passage on Trinity Sunday reinforces our
understanding of the unity shared by the members of the
Trinity. Although the idea of one God in three persons
remains a mystery, we have the assurance that, as Jesus
and the Father share all, Jesus and the Spirit share all.

my neighbour.”
