Trinity Sunday is the First Sunday after Pentecost in the Episcopal Church, a day set aside to honor and worship God as Holy Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
In Episcopal worship, Trinity Sunday often emphasizes praise, wonder, and humility before the mystery of God, rather than trying to reduce the Trinity to a simple formula.
It helps mark the transition from the great festal cycle of Easter and Pentecost into the Season after Pentecost.
Worship is like a drama: The clergy, ministers and musicians are the prompters, the people are the actors, and God is the audience.
- Søren Kierkegaard
At St Benedict we celebrate with awe and obligation in a construct called liturgy. Liturgy is a Greek word that means “the work of the people.” Our services are focused through scripture reading, song, prayers, preaching, and the liturgy of the table, known also as Holy Eucharist.
