Holy Trinity Feast
Avederan Gragi is the feast of the Trinity, the Holy Trinity. The feast of the Holy Trinity, celebrated on the Sunday after Pentecost, expresses the triune nature of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit gathered in one person. The Lord Jesus Christ says in his farewell; “The one who loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him. We will come to him and live with him.” After this speech, the Holy Spirit descended on the Apostles and the believers on the day of Pentecost. By his words and teaching we comprehend and believe in the Holy Trinity.
