The Most Holy Trinity
Sunday, June 12, 2022
My Dear Friends in Christ,
Today we are celebrating the feast of the Blessed Trinity along with the anniversary of Blessed Trinity Parish joining Saint Catherine Parish. The feast we are commemorating today is a central reality of our Christian faith, that God is Trinitarian in nature — three distinct persons — Father, Son and Holy Spirit — in one God.
As we worship together, we can grow God’s intimate relationality with all beings by loving one another. This week let’s re-invite God into the midst of our lives and spend our time and energy each day showing our profound gratitude for God’s many gifts to us.We have a lot of opportunities below this week! Spend some time with the offerings below from staff to prepare for Sunday Mass.

Pentecost
Sunday, June 5, 2022
My Dear Friends in Christ,
Today we reach the finale of the Easter season with the celebration of the great Feast of Pentecost. Reflecting on today’s readings inspires a sense of awe as we consider the mighty power of the Holy Spirit at work giving birth to and sustaining our Church.
Just as awesome — the same Spirit is calling to us this day to take up our part in the Church’s saving work. Surrendering ourselves to God is indeed a challenging way to live. But it leads to a life that is exciting, creative and deeply rewarding. It is a life guided by the very source of power and creativity — the Holy Spirit!
Spend some time with the offerings below from staff to prepare for Sunday Mass. And check out the opportunities below.

June Prayer
Come, Holy Spirit, show us your beauty,
reflected in all the peoples of the earth,
so that we may discover anew
that all are important and all are necessary,
different faces of the one humanity
that God so loves.
Amen.-Pope Francis, Fratelli Tutti
