Comments from Deacon Dale Brown Today we celebrate the Holy Trinity. This is the one
that we all have trouble understanding. But just
because we can't understand the Trinity completely
doesn't mean we can't understand it at all. The great
apologist Frank Sheed used to give a very
interesting explanation of the Most Holy Trinity. He
started by thinking about our own human nature.
Each one of us exists, but since we are spiritual, we
also have an idea of ourselves. We can think about
ourselves, reflect on ourselves, know ourselves.
This is why human beings are the only animals on
earth who write diaries. That's similar to what
happens in the relationship between God the Father
and God the Son. God the Father is spiritual, able to
know Himself. He has an idea of Himself. But,
since His knowledge is limitless, unlike ours, that
idea of Himself is perfect, perfectly complete. But
to be perfect, it has to share in God's own existence;
it has to actually be a divine person. And so, God
the Father, from all eternity, knowing Himself,
engenders the Son, the perfect image of the Father.
And then, of course, since both the Father and the
Son are infinitely good and beautiful, as soon as
they know each other, they also love each other.
Even we, when we think about ourselves, love
ourselves. We want the best for ourselves. We are
glad that we exist. But God's love, like His
knowledge, is unlimited, and so it too has to be so
intense and so full that it shares fully in the divine
existence; it is a divine person - the Holy Spirit.
This is the mystery we profess each week when we
affirm our belief in the Son of God, who is "one in
being with the Father, God from God, light from
light" and in the Holy Spirit, who "with the Father
and the Son is worshipped and glorified."

CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THE CDC GUIDELINES
TO KEEP YOU SAFE
DURING THE CURRENT PANDEMIC.
Among them are:
Wash your hands often; don’t touch your face; drink
lots of water; & stay home if you can.
O Mary,
you always brighten our path as a sign of
salvation & of hope. We entrust ourselves to
you, Health of the Sick, who, at the Cross,
took part in Jesus’ pain while remaining
steadfast in faith.
O loving Mother,
you know what we need, & we are confident
you will provide for us as
at Cana in Galilee.
Intercede for us with your Son Jesus, the Divine Physician,
for those who have fallen ill,
for those who are vulnerable,
and for those who have died.
Intercede also for those charged with protecting the
health and safety of others and
for those who are tending to the sick and seeking a cure.
Help us, O Mother of Divine Love,
to conform to the will of the Father and to do as we are told by
Jesus, who took upon himself our sufferings and carried our
sorrows, so as to lead us, through the Cross, to
the glory of the Resurrection.
Amen.
A Prayer for Protection in time of Pandemic
Under thy protection we seek refuge, O Holy Mother of God. In
our needs, despise not our petitions, but deliver us always from all
dangers, O glorious and blessed Virgin.
Amen.
