The Feast of the Most Holy Trinity celebrates the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, the three Persons of God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. As is traditional our service today also include the Athanasian Creed, which has been in use since the sixth century, and is a statement of Christian belief focused on the Trinitarian doctrine and Christology.
