Trinity Sunday - is the first Sunday after Pentecost and it is a day when our focus turns to the Holy Trinity — the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Although the word “trinity” does not appear in Scripture, it is taught in Matthew 28:18-20 and 2 Corinthians 13:14 and many other bible passages. The concept of the trinity can never be completely understood or rationalized, but it is clearly taught in Scripture. It is appropriate that this mystery is celebrated on the first Sunday after Pentecost, when the outpouring of the Holy Spirit first occurred.
On Trinity Sunday we try to explain, to the best of our ability, the clues written in Scripture which guide us to a fuller understanding of our triune God. The Father is God from the beginning (John 1:1); Jesus revealed Himself as equal to the Father in John 10:30, “I and the Father are one.” Together, they sent the Holy Spirit (John 14:26). “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19).
God for us, we call You Father, God alongside us, we call You Jesus,
God within us, we call You Holy Spirit.
Greeting Cards – We have been generously gifted a selection of handmade cards which are now on display at the back of church. We suggest a minimum donation of £1/card and funds raised from their sale will be put towards our pending roof repairs.
Phil’s Licensing – During the 10.45 service on Sunday 26th June, Phil will be licensed as a Lay Minister to St Nicholas Church by the Warden of Lay Ministry, Mrs Ruth Haldane. Immediately following the service, we are having a Jacob’s Join lunch in the hall to officially welcome Phil (and Janet). Please save the date and on the day if you are able, bring a plate of something to share!
