Doubt is the opposite of faith. The Episcopal Church celebrates how God is alive in our questions, doubts and curiosity. Listen to Rev. Katie's sermon for Trinity Sunday.

This past Sunday we celebrated the mystery of the Holy Trinity. This is our communion anthem by Hildegard von Bingen, who uses the feminine term "creatrix" in place of "creator" in her poetry.

Laus Trinitati, que sonus et vita
ac creatrix omnium in vita ipsorum est

Praise to the Trinity—the sound and life
and creativity of all within their life
