 This Week's Reflection
 The God We Profess
This week we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Trinity - a celebration which not only proclaims our belief in a Triune God, but one which also confirms our response to Christ's command to make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that He has commanded.

Bishops Robinson, Morris and Power believe it’s time to unite as one voice that the Vatican can no longer ignore.

 The Unspeakable
There are some events we encounter in life for which there is simply no language to describe adequately our experience or words capable of consoling the afflicted. The events last month at the finish line of the Boston Marathon and the siege of the city four days later might rightly fall into this category.
