Commentary by Jane Prini
The Holy Trinity is complicated. Most mysteries are. Catholics embrace mysteries, even though we understand only a part of them, because really, who could possible understand God and all his ways? His ways are a mystery. At every Mass we say; “We celebrate these sacred mysteries”. We know a lot about these mysteries but not everything. Who can understand completely how the bread and wine can be transformed into Jesus’ Body and Blood at the Eucharist. It’s a mystery. We know it happens but cannot fully explain it. Yet we know, nothing is impossible with God.
