Trinity Sunday.
31/05/2026

Trinity Sunday.

Three in one.

Which sounds like a puzzle,
a maths problem,
something to be solved
rather than lived.

But perhaps the Trinity is less about explanation
and more about experience.

The God who creates,
whose fingerprints are found
in rivers and mountains,
in blackbirds at dawn,
in laughter around kitchen tables,
in the first breath of a newborn child.

The God who comes close,
walking dusty roads,
sharing meals,
touching wounds,
showing us that love
looks like something.

The God who moves among us still,
like wind through trees,
like fire in cold hearts,
like courage arriving
when we thought we had none left.

Father.
Son.
Holy Spirit.

Not three gods.
but one God
whose love is shared,
given,
received.

A dance of love
that has been going on
since before the stars were hung in the sky.

And we are invited in.

Not as spectators.
Not as outsiders.

Participants.

Held in the love of the Creator.
Welcomed by the grace of Christ.
Filled with the presence of the Spirit.

Three in one.

Not a problem to solve,
but a mystery to enter,
an ocean to wade into,
a song still being sung.

And every act of love,
every moment of grace,
every breath of hope,

echoes with the life
of the God
who is relationship,
community,
and love itself.

PENTECOST SUNDAY, 24 MAY 2026
On this sunny Pentecost Sunday evening, the day we remember the coming of the Holy Spirit on the disciples and the birth of the church, the congregations of St Teresa's Church, Newarthill and Newarthill and Carfin Parish Church of Scotland came together to celebrate with a special joint service of praise and thanksgiving. The evening started at St Teresa’s with refreshments and fellowship, and then the two congregations walked together behind his cross, as a sign of our unity in Christ, to Newarthill and Carfin Parish for the service.
