Trinity Sunday – 15th June 2025
Trinity Sunday is a Christian festival widely celebrated by Western Churches. It falls on the first Sunday after Pentecost, which is the 50th day after Easter. Trinity Sunday, in its essence, celebrates the mystery of faith and unity on and of the Holy Trinity: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
It is a day dedicated to the Holy Trinity – the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The doctrine of the Trinity is one of the foundational beliefs of the Christian faith, and Trinity Sunday serves as a reminder of the essential nature of this belief.
The concept of the trinity can never be completely understood or rationalised, 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.
Triune God, we bring our prayers to you today—our joys and our concerns, our sorrows and our rejoicing, our despair and our hopes, trusting that you listen to us and that you care for us. Hear us now, O Lord, as we pray. We offer to you these prayers today for all your people.
