Collect: Trinity Sunday

Almighty and everlasting God, you have given to us your servants grace, by the confession of true faith, to acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity, and the power of your divine Majesty to worship the Unity: keep us steadfast in this faith and worship, and bring us at last to see in your one and eternal glory, O Father; who with the Son and the Holy Spirit live and reign, one God, forever and ever. Amen

 Sermon: -“We Don’t Know Much“-

“We speak of Trinity not because we understand it  and certainly not because it is an exercise in logic, but because, however poorly, it describes something about the way God reveals God’s self to us and it seems real,” says The Rev. Sue Eaves.  She then asks, “But how does this happen?” Listen as Eaves explains how we can have both individual and communal relationship with the Trinity and how this relationship changes our lives.
