Trinity Sunday in the Ukrainian tradition, or Pentecost, celebrates the Descent of the Holy Spirit on the apostles on the 50th day after Easter. In 2027 it falls on June 20.

Here you will find Trinity and Pentecost wishes: short, religious, folk, for family and colleagues, plus poems. Wishes for other holidays of the year are in our holiday wishes calendar.

The Holy Spirit lights the way.

And blessings bloom for you everywhere.
