- QUESTIONS OF THE
WEEK
TRINITY SUNDAY
Today's
Gospel makes it clear that the role of the Spirit is to communicate
the truth of the Father and Son to us. Inspired by this truth
we are called to extend it in love to others.
-
- Adults: Am I conscious that the Trinity dwells
within me? How could this awareness affect the decisions I make
and the people I love?
-
- Children: Who could I love better and thus pass
on God's love for me?
TRINITY
SUNDAY
The first Sunday after Pentecost was instituted
to honor the Most Holy Trinity. In the early Church no special
Office or day was assigned for the Holy Trinity. In the Sacramentary
of St. Gregory the Great there are prayers and the Preface of
the Trinity. John XXII ordered the feast for the entire Church
on the first Sunday after Pentecost. Since it was after the first
great Pentecost that the doctrine of the Trinity was proclaimed
to the world, the feast becomingly follows that of Pentecost.

LITURGY
BYTES & BITS
The altar belongs to all of us. We show
this by keeping the altar accessible from all sides, not barricaded
by flowers and other décor. We are all gathered around
the altar as Christ gathered the disciples around the table at
the last supper. This image is clearer in churches which have
moved the altar out to a more central location among those assembled.
When the altar’s location is indeed among the people, there
is a clearer perception and realization of being gathered around
the altar as around a community table. There should be nothing
that can be perceived as an impediment to approaching the table
by members of the community. Ministry
