As we celebrate today the feast of the Holy Trinity, we remember that our God is RELATIONSHIP, Father, Son, and Spirit, living in love with one another, Since we are created in the image and likeness of God, we too, are called to live in love, in right relationship with one another.
It is a joy (and a fitting day) to celebrate the first of many communions for the following children today:
Bryan N. Atemnkeng
Isaac Cousino
Daniel Hughes
Chidubem Nwamba
Raphael I. Onuoha
Bridget Smith
Their first communion gives us an opportunity to reflect on this wonderful gift of our God. Receiving communion implies living in communion, living in harmony and right relationship with our Triune God all the time. God gives us this gift of the Body and Blood of Jesus to help us live in love and with Him and with one another. God strengthens us for the journey of faith. Let’s pray that God will bless these children, and all of us, with an abiding sense of his presence.
Many, many thanks to Sharon Laing for preparing them to celebrate the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist!
