Our gospel text in John presents a much more complex picture of God. At least, it seems complex because Jesus is explaining to us how God is not one individual person, not one person, but three persons. So sometimes we Christians have a difficult time explaining to others the concept of God as we understand God. I have come to think that it is easiest to just say that God is not an individual person, God is acommunity of persons. God is one community, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
To realize the experience of the most holy trinity in reality amongst us it takes prime relevance that all of us are expected to partake in the true life of the God’s Trinitarian community. Thus we the members of this Holy family parish live the life of Unity in the community of God.
