trinity Sunday
To Pray:
Father, You sent your Word to bring us truth and your Spirit to make us holy. Through them we come to know the mystery of your life. Help us to worship you, one God in three persons, You reveal yourself in the depths of our being, by proclaiming and living our faith in you. Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen The Liturgy of the Hours To Eat:It is a Sunday which for us usually means a break from some restrictions. And that means DESSERT!!
You could serve anything in 3 layers today--like a cake or trifle. Serve your favorite Strawberry shortcake in 3 layers. Here is a recipe for an Angel Food Cake Triple Berry Dessert-- (even with a Glutenfree option) Since we don't do a lot of wheat, we sometimes do a Pavlova (not at all as hard as it sounds) And do it in three layers! |
To Do:
Tell this story about the Mystery of the Trinity. The Story of St. Augustine and the Boy at the Beach as recounted in the Golden Legend, written in A.D. 1275 by Jacobus de Voragine, Archbishop of Genoa St. Augustine was walking on the beach contemplating the mystery of the Trinity. Then he saw a boy in front of him who had dug a hole in the sand and was going out to the sea again and again and bringing some water to pour into the hole. St. Augustine asked him, “What are you doing?” “I’m going to pour the entire ocean into this hole.” “That is impossible, the whole ocean will not fit in the hole you have made” said St. Augustine. The boy replied, “And you cannot fit the Trinity in your tiny little brain.” The story concludes by saying that the boy vanished because St. Augustine had been talking to an angel. |
