Trinitarian aspects of the SVD spirituality in the Quarter Hour Prayer

Summary/Abstract: The Quarter Hour Prayer, written by a man of extraordinary devotion to the Holy Trinity, Fr Arnold Janssen, the founder of three religious missionary congregations, is one of the most important prayers in the Society of the Divine Word. It is composed of five invocations and supplications to the Trinity, each followed by the believer’s declaration of faith, trust and good intent. It acknowledges God as goodness, truth, salvation and power. The Word of God, the subject of the fourth invocation, is recognised as sent by God to ensure man’s salvation. The Incarnate Word is the fullness and the centre of the whole of history. It cuts across and breaks all human barriers and divisions and unites all people. The final invocation begs the Spirit of the Son – The Holy Spirit – to fill Christ’s disciples with the divine gifts and power. The causative activity of the Paraklet is indispensable factor in spreading the glory of God, revealed in Jesus Christ, the only Redeemer of men, to the furthest ends of the world until the end of times.
