Dear Parishioners,
Today, the church throughout the world celebrates Trinity Sunday. The mystery of the Holy Trinity is the core belief of our faith, and that of every other mainline Christian group. We believe that Almighty God is one undivided unity, yet reveals Himself as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We call this a mystery, because no matter how hard we try, we will never be able to fully figure out exactly how this works. We simply believe it, and honestly, I’m ok with that. As much as we all like to “know” everything, there is a place in life for mystery, for admitting that there are some things that are just beyond our abilities to understand.
Please remember that NEXT SUNDAY we switch to our new Summer Mass Schedule. Please take note of the times printed elsewhere in the bulletin. While some people may think that we are doing this simply to be difficult, the truth is, as I have said all along, that our attendance falls dramatically during the summer months, for a variety of reasons. It simply does not make economic or liturgical sense to be celebrating Mass in an substantially empty church. We will return to the normal schedule in September.
At this time of year, we extend our very best wishes and congratulations to all our parishioners who are celebrating major transitions in their lives: all our soon-to-be graduates, all our upcoming brides and grooms, and all those who have celebrated sacraments for the first time. Naturally, this also extends to their parents and families who are directly responsible for bringing them to these successes. God bless you always!
Fr. Armand
