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.

"Lord, send forth your Spirit and renew the face of the earth"
Reflections by Father Paul Beukes OMI
Today, the church reminds us that the three divine persons (Holy Trinity) are not divided in their actions of grace. Instead, they work and walk together. They have the same mission, which is the salvation of the world. The Father sent the Son to redeem the world(Jn1, 1-3). And the Father and the Son sent us the Holy Spirit as our Counselor and Advocate (Act 1,8.2.) None of them have absolute dominance over a particular period. This is because, despite being three distinct persons, they have one essence. They are eternally one and united.
