Understanding the Holy Trinity: Personhood, Love, and Revelation
St. Barnabas Catholic Church · Long Beach, California · May 31, 2026
Sunday MassThe homily explores the mystery of the Holy Trinity using three models: personhood, love, and revelation. It draws on the Latin origin of 'persona' to explain God as a communicating being, then illustrates God as a 'lover, beloved, and the love they share,' and finally, God as a 'revealer' through creation, history, and Jesus Christ. The core message emphasizes that the Trinity is ultimately about God's absolute love for humanity.

The Holy Trinity: A Model for Unity and Love in Our Families
San Juan Diego Mission · Robbins, North Carolina · May 31, 2026
Sunday MassSpanishThe homily on the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity emphasizes that instead of trying to intellectually grasp the mystery of God as three persons in one, we should focus on how the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit operate: in perfect unity and love. The priest encourages applying these two principles—unity and love, fostered through communication and dialogue—to our families, church, and society to overcome egoism and division.
