On the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, Pope Francis said unity is essential to Christian life because God is a communion of love.
“This mystery of the Trinity was revealed to us by Jesus himself,” Pope Francis said in his Angelus address on May 30.
“He showed us the face of God as a merciful Father; he presented himself, true man, as the Son of God and Word of the Father; he spoke of the Holy Spirit who proceeds from the Father and the Son, the Spirit of Truth.”
Speaking to pilgrims gathered in St. Peter’s Square from the window of the Vatican’s Apostolic Palace, the pope said that Trinity Sunday “makes us contemplate this wonderful mystery” and poses an invitation to grow in the “unity to which Jesus calls us.”
