“Christian mysticism, grounded in the trinitarian understanding of God, fosters an openness to receive the gift of divine union that overflows from the loving relationships found within the Trinity. The union of God and God’s beloved creation, as understood in the Christian faith, is actually a communion, in which we are invited into the loving unity with the Spirit, with Christ, and, through them, with the infinite mystery of the infinite Creator–the fullness of the one triune God.”
