Understanding the Trinity

To help our understanding of the Trinity.  We used milk, three different food colourings and dishwashing liquid.  We put some milk in a dish, added a few drops of each colour and then a drop of dishwashing liquid.  The colours swirled together to create the most beautiful patterns.  The separate colours originally represent the 3 persons of the Trinity - The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit.  Adding the dishwashing liquid shows how the 3 are one.
