PRAYER TO THE HOLY TRINITY
Glory be to the Father, Who by His almighty
power and love created me, making me in the
image and likeness of God.
Glory be to the Son, Who by His Precious Blood
delivered me from hell and opened for me the
gates of heaven.
Glory be to the Holy Spirit, Who has sanctified me
in the sacrament of Baptism and continues to
sanctify me by the graces
I receive daily from His bounty.
Glory be to the Three adorable Persons of the
Holy Trinity, now and forever. Amen
FROM THE DESK OF DEACON GARY
Trinity Sunday is the first Sunday after Pentecost. We honor the Holy Trinity—the Father, Son and Ho-
ly Spirit. This Sunday, is the feast day of our Parish. Although the word “trinity” does not appear in Scrip-
ture, it is taught in Matthew 28:18-20 and 2 Corinthians 13:14. The concept of the trinity can never be
completely understood or rationalized, but it is clearly taught in Scripture. Understanding of all scriptural
doctrine is by faith which comes through the work of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, it is appropriate that this
mystery is celebrated the first Sunday after Pentecost, when the outpouring of the Holy Spirit first occurred.
On Trinity Sunday, our Church ponders with joy and thanksgiving what the Father, Son and Holy Spirit
have done to accomplish the salvation of humanity. It is brought to remembrance how we as Christians
should respond to the love God has shown us, praising Him and giving Him glory. We remember the Fa-
ther as our Creator, the Son as our Savior and the Holy Spirit as our Comforter. Our psalm today is from
Daniel, "And blessed is your holy and glorious name, praiseworthy and exalted above all for all ages." And
from our second reading from Corinthians, "Brothers and sisters, rejoice. Mend your ways, encourage one
another, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you."
Today, Trinity Sunday we try to understand, to the best of our ability, the clues written in Scripture to guide
us to a fuller appreciation of our triune God. The Father is God from the beginning (John 1:1); Jesus re-
vealed 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). “For there are three that bear record in Heaven, the Father, the Word and the
Holy Spirit; and these three are one” (1 John 5:7-11).
As we celebrate our parish feast day, may we remember the love, mercy and unity of Father, Son and Holy
Spirit. May we be examples of love, mercy and unity to everyone we meet.
As a note, our cover for the bulletin today is our parish logo, a logo that was created by a parishioner. We
thank that parishioner for his talent.
CEMETERY COLUMBARIUM Our original plan was to have our columbarium for
St. Michael Cemetery in place by Memorial
weekend. We have been notified that the delivery
has been delayed. We will keep you informed
when it is in place most likely in mid June At that
time we will have it blessed by Bishop Cistone.

MEMORIAL DAY 2018
This is the first National Holiday of the year and it
is the day that officially begins summer activities.
It began many years ago as a
special day of remembrance and
prayers for our “grateful dead” of
the military who gave their lives in
the service of their country. Over
the years, it evolved to remember
all the faithful departed, with
special emphasis on visiting and
decorating the graves.
A Memorial Mass will be held at St. Michael/St.
Agnes Cemetery on May 29th at 9:00 a.m. In case
of inclement weather, our service will be held in
church.
St. Mary Memorial Day Service will be held
Monday, May 28th at 2:00 p.m. at Holy Trinity
Parish, St. Mary Nine Mile Church. Come join us
in celebration of our fallen soldiers and those
currently serving in the military. Bring a photo of
the loved one you are honoring to share with
others. If you have been in any branch of the
military, we would like you to be part of a
procession at church. Please arrive by 1:45 to line
up.
PLEASE NOTE THAT HOLY TRINITY
PARISH OFFICE WILL BE CLOSED
MONDAY, MAY 28TH IN REMEMBERANCE
OF MEMORIAL DAY. IN CASE OF

STEWARDSHIP MESSAGE
Feast of the Holy Trinity “The Spirit itself bears
witness with our spirit that we are children of God,
and if children then heirs, heirs of God and joint
heirs with Christ…” – ROMANS 8:16-17
If we are heirs to the kingdom of God, shouldn’t
we work to build up His kingdom? Shouldn’t we be
good stewards of our inheritance, using our time
in prayer, our talent in charitable works and our
treasure to care for the Church that God has left to
us? Our Church is a treasured heirloom from God.
Do we treat it that way?
ORDINATION TO THE ORDER OF
PRIESTHOOD
