Behold

For Catholics, today was the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity.

I went to Mass while on a relaxing retreat at Lake George. We had Mass at the lakeside with the Adirondack Mountains in the background. It was beautiful -- and seemed to fit well with today's readings.

The Gospel at Mass was from Matthew Chapter 28:

The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had ordered them.

When they all saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted.

Then Jesus approached and said to them, "All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age."

The photo above is again shamelessly cribbed from an archived post by Gashwin. I'm using it again because these beautiful morning scenes from the bedroom windows remain such a dominant memory of a trip to the Paulist Fathers' house on the lake.
