A Word from Rev. Pete for Trinity Sunday

Aloha! We had a glorious Day of Pentecost last Sunday, celebrating the coming of the Holy Spirit and the birthday of the Church. And we renewed our baptismal vows as we welcomed Jessi Leeann Marcelli and her daughter, Juliet Christine, into Jesus’ forever family! Please keep Jessi, Johnathan, and Juliet in your prayers.

Last Sunday we learned from John 14 that Jesus said we would do “even greater works” than he did—how? In the power of the Holy Spirit, our Friend, Companion, and Advocate. Have you been praying about what “greater works” God might be calling you to pursue?

This Sunday is Trinity Sunday, the day the Church sets aside to consider the theological concept of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Why is this important? We’ll dig into the scriptures assigned for the Sunday to discover how the living Trinity continues to work within us and through us today.

This Sunday is also Father’s Day, and I hope you’ll plan to stay after our worship service to celebrate our Dads with a hot dog feast! Thanks to Shannon Casey for organizing this celebration.

Please join us on Sunday morning at 9 in the Chapel, or worship with us on Facebook Live. We are grateful for you!

Dear sisters and brothers, you are in my prayers, and I ask for your prayers for St. Timothy’s Church, for our dedicated staff and devoted lay leaders and ministers, and for your vicar. May God bless you and your loved ones always.
 
Aloha Ke Akua!
Fr. Pete+
