Confirmation
Thank you to all the Confirmation families who attended Stole Night last week at Holy Trinity. It was a wonderful evening, and it was heartwarming to see parents and children working together in preparation for the Sacrament.
Next Friday, all Year 6 students will attend the Sacramental Retreat Day at Holy Trinity Primary School. Please keep an eye out for the COMPASS event, which will be shared soon.

The Most Holy Trinity Solemnity - John 16:12-15
A renowned spiritual writer has said that great dogmas of the Church are almost always paradoxical, and we live with paradox. He continues: ‘Mystery is not something we can’t know. Mystery is endless knowability on many levels’. A central mystery of our faith is of course the Trinity. Perhaps today’s chosen readings touch on some of those levels. The Spirit, in the tradition of the Gospel of John, is clearly the continuing living presence of Jesus. When Jesus meets the disciples after the resurrection, he breathes his life spirit into them and commissions them to continue his mission of forgiveness and peace. The living Spirit of Jesus within them will enable them to come to the fuller understanding of all that he has taught them.
Writing to the community in Rome, Paul invites us to reflect on the liberating effect of the love of God which enfolds us when we allow the Holy Spirit to enter our lives. Today let us pray for that Wisdom, that delights to be with us, so that we may gradually deepen our understanding of the Trinity - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - and be caught up in wonder, praise and thanksgiving.
