Trinity Sunday, also known as Holy Trinity Sunday, is celebrated a week after Pentecost Sunday in honor of the most fundamental of Christian beliefs— Belief in the Holy Trinity. We can never fully understand the mystery of the Trinity, but we know God is three Persons in one Nature. The three Persons of God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit— All are equally God.

The names of those being honored will also be on the altar and remembered at all the masses for one month, beginning on Father's Day. The proceeds from this project will be sent to the Wounded Warriors Project. Youth I'nC representatives will be accepting orders after mass the weekends of June 6/7 and June 13/14. Further information is on the order forms in the pews. Thank you for your support.
