Church Family Moment for Sunday, May 31, 2026

By Director of Spiritual Formation Rebecca Guzman

1. Listen to a readaloud of What is God’s Name? by Sandy Eisenberg Sasso: Read Aloud Video
   Today is Trinity Sunday, when we remember the different ways we experience God. In Isaiah 6:1–8, Isaiah sees God in the temple and hears the angels singing, “Holy, holy, holy!” Isaiah experiences God as powerful, loving, and forgiving all at once. In the story, people use different names for God based on how they know God. Think about your own names and nicknames. Even though they are different, they all describe you. Christians talk about God as Creator, Jesus, and Holy Spirit: different ways we experience the one God.
2. Print out a copy of this illustrated version of our first hymn: Illustrated Hymn PDF
   Sing it again here: Holy, Holy, Holy Recording
   What does the hymn reveal to us about who God is? What does the word “holy” mean?
3. Play “Holy Echo.” One person says a word that describes God, like loving, peaceful, creator, or forgiving, and everyone echoes it back together, just like the angels in Isaiah’s vision calling to one another, “Holy, holy, holy!”
4. Journal, considering the following:
   a. What illustrations of the Trinity have you seen?
   b. What does it mean to experience God in different ways?
   c. Why do you think Isaiah said, “Here I am; send me”?
   d. What does it mean to be a child of God?
