Father Sean Weeks' Pastor's Note on The Most Holy Trinity:

"The Catechism teaches that 'by sending his only Son and the Spirit of Love in the fullness of time, God has revealed his innermost secret: God himself is an eternal exchange of love, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and he has destined us to share in that exchange' (221). 'The three persons are one truth' (Saint Augustine). By pondering the truth of the Trinity, we also realize the full truth of ourselves: By His gift of faith, God has made his own life available to us even now. 'The complete Trinity dwells in us' (Father Marie-Michel Philipon, o.p.). God reveals the fullness of his very self to us that we 'might not perish but might have eternal life,' and that we might be received as his own." (Magnificat, May 2026, pg.450)

On this Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, I love the gospel choice for our celebration. For the purpose of meditation I offer this exercise, replace the word, “world” with “you”. John 3:16 is the most popular verse in the bible. “God so loved you that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life.” How does this resonate within you? This is the truth of the love of the Holy Trinity. It is the Love we are invited to live in.

Nota Pastoral del Padre Sean Weeks sobre La Santísima Trinidad:

«El Catecismo enseña que "al enviar a su Hijo único y al Espíritu de Amor en la plenitud de los tiempos, Dios ha revelado su secreto más íntimo: Dios mismo es un eterno intercambio de amor, Padre, Hijo, y Espíritu Santo, y nos ha destinado a participar en ese intercambio" (221). "Las tres personas son una sola verdad" (San Agustín). Al meditar sobre la verdad de la Trinidad, nos percatamos también de la plena verdad sobre nosotros mismos: Mediante Su don de la fe, Dios ha puesto su
propia vida a nuestra disposición, incluso desde ahora. "La Trinidad entera habita en nosotros" (Padre Marie-Michel Philipon, O.P.). Dios nos revela la plenitud de su propio ser para que "no perezcamos, sino que tengamos vida eterna", y para que seamos acogidos como suyos». (Magnificat, mayo de 2026, pág. 450)

En esta Solemnidad de la Santísima Trinidad, me encanta la elección del Evangelio para nuestra celebración. Con fines de meditación, propongo este ejercicio: sustituyan la palabra «mundo» por «tú». Juan 3:16 es el versículo más popular de la Biblia: «Tanto te amó Dios que entregó a su Hijo único, para que todo aquel que cree en él no perezca, sino que tenga vida eterna». ¿Cómo resuena esto en tu interior? Esta es la verdad del amor de la Santísima Trinidad. Es el Amor en el que estamos invitados a vivir.

Nota Pastoral del Padre Sean Weeks sobre el Domingo de Pentecostés:

«Gracias al derramamiento del Espíritu Santo en el día de Pentecostés, la Iglesia permanece en cada época vivificada y santificada por la presencia de Cristo. El Espíritu Santo nos prepara con su gracia para atraernos hacia Cristo. Él nos manifiesta al Señor resucitado, abriendo nuestras mentes. Él hace presente el misterio de Cristo. Él nos reconcilia, introduciéndonos en comunión con Dios. Y perfecciona interiormente nuestro espíritu, comunicándole un nuevo dinamismo para que se aparte del mal por amor. Cuando el Espíritu Santo viene a habitar en nosotros, "resulta del todo natural que las personas que antes estaban absortas en las cosas de este mundo adopten una perspectiva enteramente sobrenatural, y que los cobardes se conviertan en personas de gran valentía"» (San Cirilo de Alejandría). (Magnificat, mayo de 2026, pág. 364)

Amo la fiesta de Pentecostés. En esta Solemnidad celebro mi vigésimo segundo aniversario como sacerdote. El Espíritu Santo ha obrado de manera tan poderosa en mi vida y en mi ministerio. Es a través del Espíritu Santo que el Evangelio sigue siendo proclamado en todo el mundo. Es por obra del Espíritu Santo que el corazón humano crece en el deseo de entablar una relación con Dios. Las personas pasan de querer ser individuos autónomos y autodeterminados, a desear verdaderamente conocer a Dios en toda su magnificencia.

Amigos míos, quiero invitarlos a unirse a mí en el próximo desafío de oración en Hallow, o simplemente a través de la tarjeta de oración que pondremos a su disposición para la Novena del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús, la cual comienza el 3 de junio. Pidamos al Espíritu Santo que continúe transformando nuestros corazones — a veces de piedra — para hacerlos semejantes al Corazón de Jesús.

Father Sean Weeks' Pastor's Note on Pentecost Sunday:

"By the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost, the Church remains in
every age vivified and sanctified by Christ's presence. The Holy Spirit prepares us with his grace to draw us to Christ. He manifests the risen Lord to us, opening our minds. He makes present the mystery of Christ. He reconciles us, bringing us into
communion with God. And he interiorly perfects our spirit, communicating to it a new dynamism so that it refrains from evil for love. When the Holy Spirit comes within us, 'it is quite natural for people who had been absorbed by the things of this world to become entirely otherworldly in outlook, and for cowards to become people of great courage'" (Saint Cyril of Alexandria). (Magnificat, May 2026, pg. 364)

I love the Feast of Pentecost. I celebrate my 22nd year as a priest on this Solemnity. The Holy Spirit has worked so powerfully in my life and ministry. It is through the Holy Spirit that the gospel is still being proclaimed throughout the world. It is the Holy Spirit that the heart of the human grows to desire a relationship with God. They move from wanting to be their own self-determining individual, to really wanting to know God in all of his magnificence.

My friends, I want to invite you to join me with the next prayer challenge on Hallow or simply with the prayer card we will be making available for the Novena of the Sacred Heart of Jesus that begins on June 3rd. Let us ask the Holy Spirit to continue making our sometimes stony hearts after the Heart of Jesus.

Father Sean Weeks' Pastor's Note on The Ascension of the Lord/Seventh Sunday of Easter:

"'The Ascension of Jesus into heaven,' Pope Francis said, 'acquaints us with this deeply consoling reality on our journey: in Christ, true God and true man, our humanity was taken to God. Christ opened the path to us. If we entrust our life to him, if we let ourselves be guided by him, we are certain to be in safe hands, in the hands of our Savior.' This is why, as Pope Benedict XVI wrote, it would be a mistake to interpret the Ascension as 'the temporary absence of Christ from the world.' Rather, 'we go to heaven to the extent that we go to Jesus Christ and enter into him.' Heaven is a person: 'Jesus himself is what we call heaven.'” (Magnificat, May 2026, pg. 179)

Here at St. Pius X we have as our battle cry, “We are the eyes, hands, and heart of the risen Jesus.” Yes, Jesus ascended into heaven. But he now sends us to continue the mission he began, to reach out to those seekers for truth. To be the ones that will bring comfort to the suffering and afflicted. We serve them by our living in communion with Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We bring light to those experiencing darkness.
