The Solemnity of the

Most Holy Trinity

June 11, 2017

Glory to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; to God who is,

who was, and who is to come. Cf. Rv 1:8

In Praise of the Trinity With our whole heart and voice we glorify Thee, we praise Thee, we bless Thee, God the Father unbegotten, the only-begotten Son, the Holy Ghost, the Paraclete, the holy and undivided Trinity. For Thou art great, and dost wonderful things: Thou alone art God. To Thee be praise, to Thee glory, to Thee thanksgiving forever and ever, O blessed Trinity! Roman Missal

MASS INTENTIONS Jesus said, “...whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come” (Matthew 12:31). And 2 Maccabees 12:46 reads: “Thus he made atonement for the dead that they might be freed from this sin.” When we die in God’s friendship, we eventually go to heaven. But, if we haven’t properly atoned for certain sins, we have to be purified in Purgatory first. We pray for the souls in Purgatory to help them pass through faster than they would otherwise.

Requests are taken in the office one week in advance if space is available. One intention is reserved for each Mass. Please call the office for more information at (310) 323-0030.

Every time we make the sign of the

cross, we draw closer to the great

mystery of the Trinity. Pope Francis
