Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity

"Blest be God the Father, and the Only Begotten Son of God, and also the Holy Spirit, for he has shown us his merciful love." // Entrance Antiphon, Daily Roman Missal

"The mystery of the Most Holy Trinity is the central mystery of Christian faith and life. It is the mystery of God in himself. It is therefore the source of all the other mysteries of faith, the light that enlightens them. It is the most fundamental and essential teaching in the ‘hierarchy of the truths of faith.’ The whole history of salvation is identical with the history of the way and the means by which the one true God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, reveals himself to men ‘and reconciles and unites with himself those who turn away from sin.’" // CCC 234; quoted in the Daily Roman Missal

Memorial of Saint Paul VI, Pope

+ More than fifty years ago, Saint Paul VI recognized the growing influence of secularism and foresaw its profound effects on both the family and the human soul. During his pontificate, he authored seven encyclicals, including "Mysterium Fidei" on the Holy Eucharist and "Humanae Vitae" on the inherent dignity and value of human life.

✝️📖 The Daily Roman Missal serves as a faithful companion for daily Mass and for following the liturgical celebrations throughout the year! 🙏😇

Memorial of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of the Church

"Mary, present in the Church as the Mother of the Redeemer, takes part, as a mother, in that monumental struggle; against the powers of darkness which continues throughout human history. …as Christians raise their eyes with faith to Mary in the course of their earthly pilgrimage, they 'strive to increase in holiness.' Mary, the exalted Daughter of Sion, helps all her children, wherever they may be and whatever their condition, to find in Christ the path to the Father's house." // Redemptoris Mater, St. John Paul II

In 2018, Pope Francis decreed that the devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary under the title Mother of the Church be inserted into the Roman Calendar and celebrated on the day after Pentecost.

Celebrating the first anniversary of the papacy of Pope Leo XIV! May his leadership continue to guide the Church, inspiring all the faithful to grow in prayer and holiness.

“O God, shepherd and ruler of all the faithful, look favorably on your servant Pope Leo XIV, whom you have set at the head of your Church as her shepherd; grant, we pray, that by word and example he may be of service to those over whom he presides so that, together with the flock entrusted to his care, he may come to everlasting life. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.” // Collect, the English translation of The Roman Missal
