What's Happening at SJE

This Week

Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity May 26/27, 2018 In Sunday's Gospel and reading from the letter of St. Paul we hear of the gift of the Triune God; Father, Son and Holy Spirit. In our devotional life we make the sign of the cross and recite the "Glory Be" as an expression of our faith as a Trinitarian people. But what does it mean for Christian stewards to accept, in a practical way, the experience of God in this three-fold gift? Is it a call to share our own life in community, with compassion and love, and to work for healing, justice, peace and unity? Is it an invitation to invite others into fellowship with us in the unity of the Father, Son and Spirit?
