Most Holy Trinity
31 de Mayo de 2026
Santísima Trinidad
“Dios no envió a su Hijo al mundo para condenar al mundo,
sino para que el mundo fuera salvado por medio de Él”.
“God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world,
but that the world might be saved through Him.”
Reflexión sobre las lecturas dominicales del P. Luis
Reflection on Sunday Readings by Fr. Luis
LA SANTÍSIMA TRINIDAD
Queridos hermanos y hermanas, este domingo celebramos en la iglesia católica, la Solemnidad de la Santísima Trinidad, uno de los misterios más profundos de nuestra fe cristiana. Con el recordamos que: Dios se nos ha revelado como un solo Dios en tres Personas Divinas: el Padre, el Hijo y el Espíritu Santo. El Padre es nuestro Creador, el Hijo es nuestro Salvador y Redentor, y el Espíritu Santo es nuestro Santificador, a través del cual se continúa la misión de Cristo en el mundo.
El misterio de la Trinidad supera nuestro entendimiento humano, pero nos enseña algo muy importante sobre cómo debemos vivir nuestra vida. El Padre, el Hijo y el Espíritu Santo viven en perfecta unidad, amor y comunión. Aunque son Personas distintas, están unidos como un solo Dios. Su relación está marcada por un entendimiento y un amor perfectos. No necesitan teléfonos, mensajes ni redes sociales para comunicarse, porque están eternamente unidos en el amor.
La Santísima Trinidad se convierte así en un modelo para nosotros. En un mundo lleno de división, odio, violencia e incomprensión, estamos llamados a vivir en unidad, diálogo, respeto y amor. La Trinidad nos enseña que las diferencias no deben dividirnos, sino ayudarnos a construer comunión entre nosotros. En nuestras familias, comunidades y sociedad, estamos llamados a escucharnos, perdonarnos y trabajar juntos en paz, para construir así una sociedad que se parezca a la Trinidad.
Al celebrar hoy este gran misterio, pidamos que la Santísima Trinidad fortalezca a nuestras familias y a nuestro mundo con paz, diálogo, entendimiento, armonía y capacidad de aceptación de las diferencias. Que el Espíritu Santo nos ayude a ser instrumentos de reconciliación, perdón, amor y unidad en este mundo tan necesitado.
Y nunca olvidemos que, por medio del bautismo, somos templos del Espíritu Santo, y que Dios habita siempre en nosotros.
Que el Padre, el Hijo y el Espíritu Santo nos bendigan y nos guíen siempre.
Amén.
P. Luis

THE MOST HOLY TRINITY
Beloved brothers and sisters, today, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, one of the deepest mysteries of our Christian faith. God has revealed Himself to us as One God in Three Divine Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Father is our Creator, the Son is our Savior and Redeemer, and the Holy Spirit is our Sanctifier who continues the mission of Christ in the world.
The mystery of the Trinity is beyond human understanding, yet it teaches us something very important about how we should live our lives. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit live in perfect unity, love, and communion. Though they are distinct Persons, they are united as one God. Their relationship is marked by perfect understanding and perfect love. They do not need phones, messages, or social media to communicate because they are eternally united in love.
The Holy Trinity therefore becomes a model for us. In a world filled with division, hatred, violence, and misunderstanding, we are called to live in unity, dialogue, respect, and love. The Trinity teaches us that differences should not divide us but should help us build communion with one another. In our families, communities, and society, we are called to listen to one another, forgive one another, and work together in peace.
As we celebrate this great mystery today, let us pray that the Holy Trinity may strengthen our families and our world with peace and harmony. May the Holy Spirit help us become instruments of reconciliation, love, and unity in this troubled world.
And let us never forget that through baptism we are temples of the Holy Spirit, and God continues to dwell within us always.
May the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit bless and guide us forever.
Amen.
Fr. Luis
Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity 2026
My friends, in the verses just prior to our Gospel from John 3:16, Jesus told Nicodemus “No one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.”
Nicodemus said to him, “How can a person once grown old be born again ? Surely he cannot reenter his mother’s womb and be born again, can he ?”
Jesus answered, “Amen, amen, I say to you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit. What is born of flesh is flesh and what is born of Spirit is Spirit.”
The Most Holy Trinity: God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. Three distinct, separate persons in One God. That's our faith, our belief, as Catholic Christians...
Saint John Paul II often said that we are “Trinitarian people."
Someone who spent a lot of time and energy trying to understand the Holy Trinity was St. Augustine, a 4th century philosopher, theologian, and Doctor of the Church. For years, Augustine was totally pre-occupied with the Trinity, trying to understand it so he could logically explain it to others. Well that never happened. St. Augustine eventually let go and accepted this mystery of God – as a mystery of God.
My friends, over the years, people tried various ways of explaining the Holy Trinity: One God with 3 separate, distinct persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, but only one God.
St. Patrick used the 3-leaf clover. That really doesn’t work. A leaf is part of the clover but not the clover.
Some people used the egg: the shell, the white and the yolk. That doesn’t work either. (Actually, a very dear friend of mine corrected this concept and told me that the egg actually has 4 parts. The membrane is a part of the egg as well.)
Many scholars have tried to find a clear explanation of the Blessed Trinity in the Bible. There is no explanation in the Bible. The Trinity is in the Bible but never explained.
Yet, here we are, celebrating the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. The Holy Trinity is an essential part of our faith. We will profess it at Mass today and at every Mass with either the Nicene Creed or the Apostles' Creed. We profess what we do not understand but we believe.
My contemplation on the Most Holy Trinity is very simple and basic:
God the Father is the Creator of everything.
God the Son, Jesus, was sent to describe or reveal the Father.
And, God the Holy Spirit who helps us understand or comprehend what Jesus taught.
So, my friends, over the centuries, the Holy Trinity has been discussed and argued and debated. And, in the end, the short answer is: It's still a mystery.
However, all the contemplation and discussions and arguments do bring about an increased awareness of this reality, which increases our faith. In a few minutes we will profess our faith, our belief in one God – the Father, and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen !
On May 20th at Our Lady of the Rosary Cathedral, Bishop Rojas presented an award and recognized Sergio Cisneros, our faithful parish employee and servant of God. Congratulations and thank you for your dedication, Sergio !
