Trinity Sunday- June 11,2006
There are three Persons in One God-God the Father, God the Son and God
the Holy Spirit. We worship One God but we also have the opportunity in
our daily prayer to know and love each Person of the Blessed Trinity.
Each of us will discover a special relationship with the three Persons
if we call them name-the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Vocation View
Human beings establish lasting loving bonds.
But the Trinity shows us perfect love: you, God and neighbour.
There’s nothing more than love.
Prayer for Vocations
O God, who has chosen the Apostles to propagate the faith & to
establish Your Holy Church throughout the world, we earnestly beseech
You to choose from amongst our people many priests, deacons, religious
brothers & sisters and lay persons who will gladly devote their
entire lives in making you known & loved by all. Through the
intercession of our Blessed Lady, we ask this through Christ our
Lord. Amen
