Jesus said, “All that the Father has is mine. For this reason I said that [the Spirit] will take what is mine and declare it to you”

Isn’t it quite ironic that the most basic formula of our prayer is one of the most least understood among the doctrines of our faith. Whenever we start our prayer, we always invoke the three Persons of the Trinity. We always start our prayer with the Sign of the Cross. We say “In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” We say this while we use our right hand to touch our forehead, our abdomen, our left shoulder, then our right shoulder. We have done these things in an almost automatic function that we don’t really realise how immense this doctrine of the Holy Trinity is all about.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY

In the spirit of reconciliation, the Society of the Divine Word, Australia Province, acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea, sky, and community.

We acknowledge their skin-groups, story-lines, traditions, religiosity and living cultures.

We pay respect to their elders, past, present, and emerging, and extend that respect to all indigenous peoples of New Zealand, Thailand, and Myanmar.

We are committed to building with them, a brighter future together.
