Trinity Sunday
Trinity Sunday, observed on the first Sunday after Pentecost, focuses not on a specific event but on who God is—one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, this day emphasizes the Church’s confession of the triune God as the source of creation, redemption, and sanctification
