Regional Mass of Inclusion for Persons with Disabilities and the Deaf SUNDAY JUNE 5, 2016 - 12:00 pm St. Columba’s Church 2245 Kimball Street Brooklyn, NY 11234 For more information, please contact Joanna: 646-474-0195 MAY 22, 2016 4 From the Pastor’s Desk… Today we celebrate The Feast of the Holy Trinity. “The Catechism of the Catholic Church says, “The mystery of the Most Holy Trinity is the central mystery of Christian faith and life. It is the mystery of God in Himself. It is therefore the source of all the other mysteries of faith” One God in three persons: Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. They are equally wise, equally powerful and equally good and yet not distinct from each other. The word Trinity was coined by Tertullian in the second Century. The Council of Nicaea (325 A.D.) gave us a Creed which we recite every Sunday. The creed states: I believe in one God the ……..I believe in Jesus Christ his only Son……..I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord the giver of Life…… The Creed throws light on the specific roles of the each person of the Trinity. Father: the Creator, Son: the Redeemer and the Holy Spirit: the Sanctifier. In the Church’s history, St. Augustine used the fact of our intellect to explain this mystery, He says, our “Intellect” has three faculties (Understanding, Memory and Will) yet it is one Intellect. St. Patrick used the image of “Shamrock” to explain about the Trinity. Karl Barth a protestant theologian sees the mystery in these words: God has spoken to us. According to this explanation God is the Speaker, Jesus is the Word (Eternal Word) and the Holy Spirit is an Interpreter. For me this strongest connection between the three persons of the Holy Trinity is seen in these verses: Jesus said, “No one can come to the Father except through me (Jesus)” (Jn 14:6). No one can say, “Jesus is Lord” except by the Holy Spirit. (1Cor 12:3). Jesus says, the Father and I are one (Jn 10:30). Go therefore and baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit…….. (Mt. 28:19). Walking with the Lord (Corpus Christi Procession) Next Sunday, May 29th, we celebrate the Feast of the Corpus Christi. We will honor the Body of Christ as we process outdoors with the Blessed Sacrament. When we carry the Eucharist into our neighborhood we are professing our faith outside the doors of our Church. We are also acknowledging our call to bring Christ to our neighbors and to all the world. This Procession will be at the conclusion of the 12:15 PM Mass. We encourage all to participate in the Corpus Christi Procession. God bless you, Fr.
