Dear People of St. Patrick Parish,

On this Trinity Sunday, we reflect upon God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. One God in three Divine persons.

LOVE is strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties. We think about fatherly concern of God for man and woman as we reflect today, Father’s Day, about the love of a parent for the child and the love of the child for the parent.

We are created by God the Father out of love for us. That loving God wants us to love Him back with praise and joy and faith and hope that God the Father wants all of us His children, to one day be happy with Him in Heaven forever.

The Father out of love for all people, send His Son Jesus to earth, to teach us about God our Father and to die to save us from sin so we can be in heaven one day.

Jesus did His part and sends with the love of the Father, The Holy Spirit to teach, enlighten and help to bring peace into our lives by living the way God wants us to live.

Every time we make the sign of the cross, we acknowledge God’s love for us and hopefully our love for the God who created us and longs for our love toward Him, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit that helps us to learn to love our brothers and sisters in the Sacred Family of God.

Yes, we disappoint God when we sin, when we reject God’s love and mercy in the forgiveness of our sins. We cause Him pain when we refuse to receive the Body and Blood of His Son, Jesus in Holy Communion.

Let us today, review our love of God and remember His love for us.

God Bless,
Fr. Larry Young
Your Pastor
