The Most Holy Trinity
June 19, 2011
God so loved the world
that he gave his only Son.
— John 3:16a
From the Pastor’s Desk
Happy Feast Day! As we celebrate the feast of the
Most Holy Trinity, know that you are all in my prayer in a
special way. We are privileged to be members of a parish
dedicated to this rich concept of God. It is something that
all of us who call ourselves Christian learn early on—
three persons in one God—and yet none of us can truly
grasp what that means. We speak in metaphors, in small
attempts to describe something that is greater than
anything that the human mind can ever grasp.
My favorite attempt at an explanation is the Greek
word perichoresis, used by St. Hilary of Poitiers in the
fourth century. For him, the persons of God reciprocally
contain and envelop one another: “The Father is in Me
and I am in Him,” we hear in the Gospel of John. But this
concept goes even further: it can also be considered a
dance, a dance round and round. The Father and the Son
and the Spirit dance around one another in ecstatic joy,
enveloping one another, dancing to such joy that life is
born from it: you and I, each one of us in humanity, are
born in God’s image and likeness, products of the joy that
is God’s own existence!
Interestingly, both St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Basil
wrote extensively on the Trinity. It is fitting that the
merger of two parishes dedicated to these two saints
would take this name. It is as if the dance of St. Thomas
and St. Basil enveloped the people of each parish and
gave birth to us as Most Holy Trinity. How blessed we
are!
Perichoresis is also at the root of Jesus’ statement
about two people becoming one in marriage. And that
dance of love and joy gives birth to new life, so often in
the form of children. So today I pray in a special way for
families, in thanksgiving for the graces that are, and for
healing of the inevitable hurts that come, for we are all
flawed human beings. And I pray specifically for fathers,
on this, their special day. May your fatherhood reflect the
life-giving presence of God, and may your lives progress
on the road on which God has placed you.
I write this while at my sister Kathy’s house. I feel
privileged to be part of a special human family that was
born of the dance of love of my parents; and I feel
privileged to be part of a parish that is dedicated to the
dance of love that is no less than God. May this incredible
God, three-in-one, fill each of you with blessings and joy
on this, our feast.
Fr. Maurice
Mensaje del Parroco
¡Feliz Día de Fiesta! Al celebrar la fiesta de la Santísima
Trinidad, sepan que todos ustedes están en mis oraciones de
una manera especial. Tenemos el privilegio de ser miembros
de una parroquia dedicada a este rico concepto de Dios. Es
algo que todos nosotros que nos llamamos cristianos
aprendemos desde temprana edad – tres personas en un solo
Dios – y sin embargo, ninguno de nosotros puede realmente
entender lo que eso significa. Hablamos en metáforas, en
pequeños intentos para describir algo que es más grande que
cualquier cosa que la mente humana pueda jamás
comprender.
Mi intento favorito para una explicación es la palabra
griega perichoresis, usada por San Hilario de Poitiers en el
cuarto siglo. Para él, las personas de Dios recíprocamente se
contienen y se envuelven uno con otro: “El Padre está en mí
y yo en Él”, escuchamos en el Evangelio de Juan. Pero este
concepto va más allá: también puede ser considerado como
una danza, una danza de vueltas tras vueltas. El Padre y el
Hijo y el Espíritu danzan uno alrededor del otro en alegría
extática, envueltos entre sí, danzando en tal alegría, que la
vida nace de ella: ¡tú y yo, cada uno en nuestra humanidad,
nacemos a imagen y semejanza de Dios, productos de la
alegría que es la existencia misma de Dios!
Interesantemente, tanto Santo Tomás de Aquino como
San Basilio escribieron extensamente sobre la Trinidad. Es
apropiado que la unión de dos parroquias dedicadas a estos
dos santos lleve este nombre. Es como si la danza de Santo
Tomás y San Basilio haya envuelto a la gente de cada
parroquia y nos haya dado a luz como La Santísima Trinidad.
¡Qué bendecidos somos!
Perichoresis también es la base de la declaración de Jesús
sobre cómo dos personas en el matrimonio se convierten en
una sola. Y esa danza de amor y alegría da a luz a una nueva
vida, frecuentemente en forma de niños. Por eso hoy pido de
manera especial por las familias, en agradecimiento por las
gracias existentes, y por la sanación de las inevitables heridas
que suceden, porque todos somos seres humanos
imperfectos. Y pido específicamente por los padres, en este,
su día especial. Que su paternidad refleje la presencia
vivificante de Dios, y que sus vidas progresen en el camino
en el que Dios los ha puesto.
Escribo la presente en la casa de mi hermana Kathy. Me
siento privilegiado de ser parte de una familia humana
especial que nació de la danza de amor de mis padres; y me
siento privilegiado de ser parte de una parroquia dedicada a
la danza de amor que es nada menos que Dios. Que este Dios
increíble, tres-en-uno, colme a cada uno de ustedes con
bendiciones y alegrías en esta, nuestra fiesta.
Padre Maurice
The Most Holy Trinity
La Santísima Trinidad
Reflection by - Deacon Rob Ward
Most of us do not know how an electric light
works, how a telephone or television works, but that
does not prevent us from using them. I want to try to
apply this same common sense approach to the
doctrine of the Trinity. The trinity is not a problem
to be solved. It is not a riddle to be explained. It is a
life to be lived.
God is Trinity, so God is not an aloneness. The
very essence of God is a self-giving and a loving
relationship of people. God is lover (Father); God is
beloved (Son); God is love (Holy Spirit). We can’t
hope to encompass and understand the God who is
complete love, but we can be in awe and worship.
God is a community of persons, and since we are
made in the image of God, community and
relationships are the most
important things in human life.
Community and relationships
influence us in every facet of our
lives. In fact, we cannot be or
live without being in
relationships. Our most
contented moments are always
associated with times when we
are being generous and
concerned about others.
As we go through life’s
experiences, we come to see
more clearly that loving is at the
heart of being human. The
failures that pain us the most are
our failures in love. The happiest in our lives come
from the love we give and receive. Our awareness of
the mystery of God is not simply private and
personal. As we strive to follow Jesus, of necessity
we have to become more open, more aware of others,
and more loving. In so doing, we become more like
God in whose image we are made. The feast of the
Trinity is not supposed to confuse us with theology
we cannot understand; it is designed to comfort us, to
help us realize that God comes to us in different
ways. Celebrate God’s intimate love for us, and you
will celebrate worthily the feast of the Trinity.
Reflexión por Diacono Rob Ward
La mayoría de nosotros no sabemos cómo
funciona la luz eléctrica, cómo funciona un teléfono
o la televisión, pero eso no nos impide usarlos.
Quiero tratar de aplicar este mismo concepto de
sentido común a la doctrina de la Trinidad. La
Trinidad no es un problema para resolver. No es una
adivinanza para explicar. Es una vida para vivirla.
Dios es Trinidad, así que Dios no es soledad. La
esencia misma de Dios es una relación amorosa y de
entrega de las personas. Dios es amante (Padre),
Dios es amado (Hijo), Dios es amor (Espíritu Santo).
No podemos esperar abarcar y comprender al Dios
que es amor completo, pero podemos admirarle y
adorarle. Dios es una comunidad de personas, y ya
que nosotros estamos creados a imagen de Dios, la
comunidad y las relaciones son
las cosas más importantes en la
vida humana. La comunidad y
las relaciones nos influencian en
cada faceta de nuestras vidas.
De hecho, no podemos estar o
vivir sin relacionarnos. Nuestros
momentos más contentos están
siempre asociados a los
momentos en los que somos
generosos y nos interesamos por
los demás.
A medida que pasamos por las
experiencias de la vida, llegamos
a ver más claramente que amar
es la parte central de ser
humanos. Que las fallas que más nos duelen son
nuestras fallas de amor. Lo más feliz en nuestras
vidas proviene del amor que damos y recibimos. Ser
consientes del misterio de Dios no es solo algo
privado y personal. Al esforzarnos por seguir a Jesús
tenemos necesariamente que ser más abiertos, más
conscientes de los demás, y más amorosos. Al
hacerlo así, nos hacemos más como Dios a cuya
imagen hemos sido creados. Se supone que la fiesta
de la Santísima Trinidad no nos debe confundir con
teología que no podemos entender; está diseñada
para consolarnos, para ayudarnos a que nos demos
cuenta de que Dios viene a nosotros de diferentes
maneras. Celebra el amor íntimo de Dios por
nosotros, y celebrarás dignamente la fiesta de la
Santísima Trinidad.

JCDA to host Fan Drive
JCDA, in partnership with United Way of Brazoria
County, is holding a Fan Drive until June 20 to
benefit local families. During the hot summer
months, many people in our community do not have
air conditioning or other means of cooling during
extreme heat. The goal is to
provide free fans to low-income
individuals and families that may
be vulnerable to the heat. JCDA is
asking for your help in donating fans,
window units or monetary donations
towards the purchase of these
items. All items will be distributed thru ActionS/
United Way of Brazoria County. Although summer
doesn’t officially begin until June 21, temperatures
are already starting to rise and creating problems for
vulnerable segments of the community – the elderly,
newborn babies and individuals with respiratory
illnesses. For more information, or to help, please
call Frances Barrera, 832-250-4534, Roseanne
Buentello, 979-487-5839, or any JCDA member.

Grace and Eternal Life
Moses is a man after our own hearts, for haven’t
we all dealt with more than our share of stiff-necked
people? Indeed, haven’t we all gotten a little stiffnecked ourselves at times? Complaining . . .
impatient . . . quick to anger. How lucky for
Moses—how lucky for all of us—that God is exactly
the opposite! And we don’t even have to guess about
it. The Lord tells us so directly. Accordingly, Moses
does what we all need to do. Even with the tablets in
hand, he bows down and asks for God’s forgiveness
and grace.
Encouraging us to live together in peace—and in
God’s favor—the Apostle Paul knows all about this
grace, joyfully invoking Christ’s grace on us along
with God’s love and the Holy Spirit’s. “Rejoice,” he
says. And when it comes to rejoicing, John offers us
the gladdest words of all: the assurance of eternal life

Baptisms: Preparations sessions are required for parents and godparents and a recognition Mass. Parents
should be registered in the parish and practicing Catholics. Call the parish office as early as possible during
pregnancy to pre-register for classes. Baptism will be set upon completion of the required classes.
RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults): For individuals who are not baptized, baptized in another
denomination and interested in becoming Catholic, or baptized Catholics who never completed the sacraments
of initiation (Eucharist & Confirmation). This process leads to full communion in the Catholic Church.
First Reconciliation/First Communion: Enrollment in the sacrament preparation process is open to children
in grade 2 or older who are registered in the parish, faithfully attending Mass and enrolled in ongoing faith
formation programming. Classes include required parent & child sessions for both sacraments.
Confirmation: Enrollment in a 2-year preparation process is open to youth in grade 10 or higher who actively
practice the Catholic faith and are registered in the parish. Youth must be regularly attending Mass and ongoing
faith formation classes. An entrance interview may be required.
Marriage: By appointment only, 6-12 months in advance. Either one or both of the couple must be registered
in the parish. Marriage Preparation Program required. No weddings during Lent.
Holy Orders: If interested in the Priesthood or Diaconate, contact Fr. Maurice Restivo, C.S.B.
Death in the Family: Call the Parish Office before you make an appointment with the funeral home. We are
here to help you spiritually and emotionally.
If you have any questions, please call the Parish Office at 849-2421.
