The Most Holy Trinity The Mission of the Trinity

Sts. Peter and Paul Church

May 27, 2018

Most Holy Trinity (B) Deuteronomy 4:32–34, 39–40 Romans 8:14–17; Matthew 28:16–20 Christian iconography commonly represents the Godhead as a triangle with the all-seeing eye in the center, often with rays of glory flooding forth. Yet, in a fresco painted for Pope Julius II, Raphael chooses to make it much more personal, more real.

He depicts the three persons of the Trinity.

Reading I - Deuteronomy 4: 32-34, 39-40

Moses gave the children of Israel “decrees and laws” to make them into a living people. God entrusted His law to them on Mt. Horeb as a sign of His covenant. Israel is called to remain faithful whatever happens.

God is not merely an idea, a first principle, or a mental criteria for moral choosing, but three real divine persons, each one active in your life. A triune God, an eternal explosion of love in which the Father begins by creating you; the Son continues by saving you; and the Holy Spirit consumes their love by inspiring and sanctifying you.

Reading II - Romans 8: 14-17

The Spirit makes us children of God. And Paul states that we are heirs with Christ. This means that all that the Son shares with the Father has now been bequeathed to us as well.

Although all things change, God never changes. He is still, the point of the pendulum from which all things hang and are supported. He wisely governs with his one hand lifted in authoritative and assuring purpose. In his other hand, the sphere of the world rests secure. His decisions are not arbitrary, swayed by public opinion, or motivated by insecurity needing affirmation. He is who is. It is we who need him and not the other way around.

Gospel - Matthew 28: 16-20

This is the last recorded encounter of Jesus by the disciples. Jesus’ parting words of The Great Commission sending the disciples out to make disciples of all nations.

Yet, his absolute authority doesn’t convert him into an aloof despot. God lovingly takes interest in everything! Nothing is unimportant—from the greatest things on earth to the smallest minutiae of my day. If it is important to me, it is important to him, and his providential hand keeps it all in balance.

KILAUEA LAVA FLOW RECOVERY UPDATE May 21, 2018

MAHALO for your generous donations to our Catholic Care Brown Bag Project. Volunteers packed your dona-ons of nonperishable goods to make 170 bags for those most vulnerable in our changing economic -mes.

Also last week Friday, May 18 six volunteers and staff assisted the Hawaii Foodbank in giving out 148 boxes of food to our kupuna. Our next 32 lb Food box distribution will be Friday, June 15th.

GET INVOLVED-TAKE ACTION “I would like to ask you all to see a ray of hope as well in the eyes and hearts of refugees and of those who have been forcibly displaced. A hope that is expressed in expectations for the future, in the desire for friendship, in the wish to participate in the host society also through learning the language, access to employment and the education of children.”

– Pope Francis, Address to Participants in the Plenary of the Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant People, May 24, 2013

Refugees are individuals who have fled their countries of origin and who meet the United Nations’ criteria of having a “well-founded fear of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion.” Currently, global displacement is rampant with approximately 65.3 million people around the world that have been forced out of their homes – with an estimated 34,000 people displaced per day. The Catholic Church in the United States cares deeply about the plight of refugees around the world and advocates for and participates in their resettlement in the United States. Read our materials (USCCB.org) to learn more about the dynamics underlying forced migration, the Catholic Church’s position on refugees and resettlement, and how you can help stand in solidarity with refugees.

Hawaii County and State government officials have asked HOPE Services Hawaii to coordinate social service providers assisting residents in Puna impacted by the lava flow. Brandee Menino, HOPE Services CEO, reported coordination as follows: • For non-perishable food and water – donations made to the Food Basket, Inc. • For clothing, other supplies and meals at shelter – donations made to the Salvation Army.

• Agency providing rental assistance for families with minor children experiencing homelessness, at risk homeless or with a Section 8 voucher – refer to HOPE Services HI. • Agency providing some financial assistance – refer to Catholic Charities Hawaii.

• Catholic nurses are providing assistance at shelters managed by the County Parks and Rec Dept. in partnership with the American Red Cross.

Hope Services is coordinating response for residents displaced by the eruptions who need short, medium, and long-term housing. In the past week, HOPE Services along with the County and various business partners have worked hard to explore options for each duration of need.

Hope Services strongly encourages Catholic parishes on Hawaii Island to lend a hand to support the immediate needs of those persons who have been displaced (meals at shelter, food and water donations, etc.). Anyone who has housing available for either, short, medium or long-term are asked to reach out to East Hawaii team lead, Teyora Graves, tgraves@hopeserviceshawaii.org or 747-1041. For short-term housing, some ideas include utilizing parish space for safe parking zones or access to shelter inside the parish.

Many evacuees are waiting it out, uncertain of when they can return home.

At the time of this writing, 44 structures have burned down, most are homes. 22 fissures exist, with at least half a dozen actively spewing lava.

FAITH FORMATION Young Adults

CCD

1 Cor. 12:13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body - Jews or Greeks, slaves or free -- and all were made to drink of one Spirit.

ʻAnoʻai Kākou, We always say we believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic church, but what does "one" really mean? Obviously God doesn't care about our race or anything else that might determine our status to others or in society, so we're all born on the same level below God, but that just puts us all in one place... so what does it mean to actually be united into one body? We feel one with the Church when we go to mass (especially this week with Pentecost Sunday). However, if we define ourselves by our thoughts and actions, then our sense of unity isn't what brings us to mass, it's what we carry out with us. In other words, it's how we represent the Church as we live our daily lives. Speaking of what we do day-to-day: * Tuesdays ESL (English as a Second Language): Practice English conversation Tuesdays 5-6 pm * Thursdays Bible Study: Young adults Bible study Thursdays 5-6 pm * Second Saturday Morning Church Cleaning: Once a month, just for a couple of hours, we help clean the church from 8.30 am We also do other things as well - please contact me if you're interested in joining efforts on serving: * Kakaʻako Family Shelter * Human Trafficking Victims Of course, there are also plenty of one-off projects, partnering community organizations, and social/spiritual activities with our fellow parishes, so please sign up (email/facebook) for notifications, and join whenever you can. For example, currently the diocese is planning a Young Adults Summer Sports Day (CatholicHawaii.org/YASummerSportsDay)...

Check out our facebook page: www.facebook.com/YoungAdultsMinistry.Honolulu If you have any interest, questions, comments, ideas, etc. please email us at trivialFyr@gmail.com or txt 305-898-0378. Hope to see everyone soon!

Aloha parents, parishioners, friends, and visitors!

As we come to the end of our Faith Formation Program year today, we’d like to thank our parents, parishioners, and friends for your incredible support throughout the year. It is in relationship with you that we are able to deepen and strengthen our faith in the Lord.

This year has been an incredible faith journey with our students. Catechists in grades Preschool thru high school worked diligently to provide lessons and activities that were gospel based and relevant to the unique needs of their students. We worked collaboratively between grade levels to participate in Parish Liturgical Seasonal activities to fully engage our students in service and community building.

Highlighted below are some examples of our participation: ♥ Christmas Vigil Nativity Pageant ♥ Lenten “Thoughts” on the BarrenTree ♥ Stations of the Cross during Lent ♥ Participation in Rice Bowl ♥ Palm Sunday Banner Procession ♥ Passion of the Lord on Good Friday ♥ Easter Sunday Family Mass ♥ Crowning of Mary with the Legion of Mary ♥ Family Mass Lectors ♥ Altar Servers ♥ Commentator ♥ Church Cleaners Finally, sixty-six students received the Sacrament of Confirmation and twenty-five students received First Communion on Sunday, May 20, 2018.

Deqn?ndtTo, Did Jesus know that he was God? veryone, |esus included, has self-knowledge-at least in principle. For example, even though we know that we are individual human beings, we still flnd it almost impossible to formulate what that really means. Saint Thomas Aquinas explains that our knowledge of all things is conceptual-we make abstractions, express them in concepts, and think by combining these concepts. But self-knowledge is the one exception-it is intuitive knowledge, not conceptual, and extremely difflcult to formulate in concepts.

Did |esus know that he was God? Yes, intuitively. But if it's hard for us to express what we somehow sense as our basic humanity, imagine how difficult it would have been for fesus to express what he profoundly grasped as his divine/human self-identity.

His knowledge of his radical selfhood would have been a genuine selfawareness of who he truly was-both God and human-but he wouldn't have

Zep3:14-18a

been able to express it in a conceptual

profound, intuitive self-knowledge.

Human beings perceive they are human early in life, but they know even more when they're forty than when they are twenty. A similar deepening perception took place in Jesus. Through life experiences, Jesus constantly discovered what being divine in human circumstances implied. That's why Hebrews 5:8 says he "learned obedience through what he suffered."

How wonderful it is to have |esus, true God and true human, as our Savior.
