Communion with Our Triune God

Eucharistic Meditation | June 15, AD 2025

As orthodox Christians, one of our most essential beliefs is that we worship a Triune God. We confess that there is only one true and living God, and He eternally exists in three united yet distinct persons—God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

Now, each week here at this Table, we primarily focus our attention on the Son, and rightly so, for here is bread and wine that serve as signs of His body and blood. But this is also a Triune meal. In God’s great work of redemption, all the Persons of the Godhead are inseparably involved.

For here we are reminded that the Father chose us before the foundation of the world and sent His Son and Spirit to accomplish our salvation. Here we receive the Son’s body, which was broken for us, and His blood, which was poured out for us, that by them we would be strengthened. And here the Holy Spirit lifts us up, uniting us to our ascended Lord in heaven, and sealing the benefits of this sacrament to our hearts.

This means that in this Trinitarian celebration, when you partake of Christ, you are participating in the life of the Holy Trinity. God is joyfully inviting you into Himself—into a love that always has been and forever will be overflowing.

So come, and welcome, to Jesus Christ.
