Praying With the Trinity

“I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now. But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth. He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming.  He will glorify me, because he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.  Everything that the Father has is mine; for this reason I told you that he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.”  (John 16:12-15)

The Trinity is three persons yet one God.  It is a mystery that may be hard for us to comprehend.  How can God be three and yet one?  They form a perfect unity.  In this video, Fr. Jeff discusses each person of the Trinity, their relationship to one another, and we how invoke the Trinity in our own personal prayer as well as the prayers at Mass.  Here are the slides for this presentation.
