Collection

Last weekend’s collection: $13,290.00* *Included in this number is Faith Direct, electronic giving. The weekly average for electronic giving is $5,020.00. For an easier more consistent way of supporting Christ the King, please consider using Faith

Direct at www.faithdirect.net. Our parish code is NJ658.

The Most Holy Trinity

“Jesus said to His disciples: ‘I have much more to tell you, but you cannot hear it now.

But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth… Everything that

the Father has is mine; for this reason I told you that he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.” “….because the love of

God has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given

to us.”

Our faith today tells us two things. The first is the existence of the Trinity, as the

passage of Saint John speaks of Father and Spirit referred to by Jesus Himself. The second is that the mystery of the Trinity is

not something, not distant from us, but it is within, and has been ‘poured out into our

hearts.

Maybe I can bless myself more reverently as I proclaim my faith in the mystery of God. When I see an athlete rapidly make the sign

of the cross, may it remind me, not of faith, but of what He has poured into my heart!

When I am looking for direction on a GPS or

map, may I be reminded that it is the promised spirit of Jesus who will guide me.

When I am in doubt, making a decision, may

I ask the Spirit, the gift of the Father and Son, to assist me. I cannot fully understand this mystery, but can acknowledge it and use

it well.

Reminder!!

This Sunday will be the last 5:30pm Mass celebrated until after Labor Day.
