Invoke the Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son & Holy Spirit!

The mystery of the Most Holy Trinity is the central mystery of our faith and of the Christian life. One God in Three distinct Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

God, the Most Holy Trinity is love. Love is diffuse, thus He wanted to make us participate in the love which flows in the heart of life in the Trinity. 

The objective of these seven days is to grow in knowledge and love of the Most Holy Trinity, so that we invoke them with reverence and love. This will help us to be good soil, so that when Christ considers it opportune, by means of the Holy Spirit, He will introduce us into life in the Trinity, of which the Saints of Carmel are both witnesses and intercessors. St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus never ceased from imploring God to the end of her earthly life: “Holy Trinity, I love you and yearn to make you loved”.

Prayer from the retreat

St. Elizabeth of the Trinity

O my God, Trinity whom I adore, help me forget myself entirely so to establish myself in you, unmovable and peaceful as if my soul were already in eternity. May nothing be able to trouble my peace or make me leave you, O my unchanging God, but may each minute bring me more deeply into your mystery! Amen
