Solemnity of The Most Holy Trinity (Year C) - 12 June ☘️⛪️
A short reflection on the Most Holy Trinity by the Venerable Archbishop Fulton J Sheen:
"The Father loves the Son and the Son loves the Father. Love is not in one alone; love is not in the other. The love that we have for one another is not just in me and not just in you. Love is always a bond between two or among several. That is why even lovers will speak of our love, something outside of the lovers themselves. So love is not in the Father, love is not in the Son, love is the mysterious bond uniting both. Because we are here dealing with the infinite, that divine love is so deep, so profound that it cannot express itself by canticles, words, or embraces. It can express itself only by that which signifies the fullness and exhaustion of all giving, namely a sigh. Something that’s too deep for words. That is why the bond of love between the Father and the Son is called the Holy Breath, the Holy Spirit. As the three angles of the triangle do not make three triangles, but one, so there are three persons or three relationships in God, but only one God." (Through The Year With Fulton Sheen)

Prayer to the Most Holy Trinity
Glory be to the Father, Who by His almighty power and love created me, making me in the image and likeness of God.
Glory be to the Son, Who by His Precious Blood delivered me from hell, and opened for me the gates of heaven.
Glory be to the Holy Spirit, Who has sanctified me in the sacrament of Baptism, and continues to sanctify me by the graces I receive daily from His bounty.
Glory be to the Three adorable Persons of the Holy Trinity, now and forever. Amen. 🙏💖💐☘️
Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary
O Blessed Virgin Mary, Daughter of God the Father, Mother of God the Son, Spouse of God the Holy Spirit, cover us with your holy mantle and protect us from all perils that endanger our souls. Keep us close to your Immaculate Heart. Amen. 🙏💖💐
The Value of the Holy Mass
The Holy Mass is the highest form of worship, the unbloody renewal of the Sacrifice of the Cross. One Mass gives God more praise and thanksgiving, makes more atonement for sin and pleads more eloquently, than does the combined worship of all the souls in heaven, on earth and in purgatory. In the Sacrifice of the Altar, it is Jesus Christ Who is our High Priest, Mediator and Victim. Being God as well as Man, His prayers, merits, and offerings are infinite in value.
Why Should We Hear Holy Mass?
The Holy Mass is the best means we have to:
1. Give glory to the Heavenly Father.
2. Thank Him for all His blessings.
3. Make reparation for all our sins.
4. Obtain all the blessings we desire.
5. Release souls from Purgatory; to shorten our own time there.
6. Preserve us from all danger to soul and body.
7. Intercede for us at the Judgment Seat of God.
8. Be consoled at the hour of death, for at that time its memory will be our greatest consolation.
9. Understand better the sublimity of the Passion of Christ, and to increase our love for Him.
