Loomis Day
Loomis Day, which falls on May 30 each year, celebrates Mahlon Loomis and his important discoveries relating to telegraphic communication. Loomis, who was an American dentist, was fascinated by the Earth’s atmosphere and how it could be used for long-distance wireless communication. While most of his experiments failed and/or have been discredited, one of his most prominent experiments led to the accidental discovery of primitive radio technology. This wireless technology was further developed and refined to provide the modern world with WiFi, TV, radio, telephone, etc. So, even if it was accidental, the world has Mahlon Loomis to thank for the wireless telegraphic technologies we all can enjoy today.
Trinity Sunday
This year’s Trinity Sunday falls on June 15. Trinity Sunday is a Christian festival widely celebrated by Western Churches. It falls on the first Sunday after Pentecost, which is the 50th day after Easter. Trinity Sunday, in its essence, celebrates the mystery of faith and unity on and of the Holy Trinity: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Trinity is not mentioned in Scripture, but Christians belonging to Western Churches celebrate it and God’s love for humans because of their faith and utmost appreciation for the Trinity itself. Many Western Churches celebrate the occasion with symbols of fire, wind, and a dove.
