dc.description.abstract"The word 'communication' is historically related to the word 'common'. It stems from the Latin verb communicare, which means 'to share', to make common, and which in turn is related to the Latin word for common: communis."1 On the other hand, "everything, which leads to being together, to having something in common, can thus be called communication."' Therefore, "In its broadest sense, 'communication' covers everything which brings people closer together, unites and binds them in one way or another."' Thus, "when we communicate, we make things common. We thus increase our shared knowledge, our 'common sense' — - the basic precondition for all community."4 The human community, in particular, the Christian community, has its foundation in the communication of God who in His own initiative made Himself to be known. That is why the Blessed Trinity is the foundation of all human communication. With the event of the Incarnation, the communication of God to human beings gains human voice, attitude and closer relationship. The Church — the mystical Body of Christ — comes to continue fulfilling the same revelatory salvific plan of God, following the same mission of Jesus Christ. In this Church of Christ, communion, fellowship, open dialogue, and mutual sharing in love are the key words. The Church has the mission to continue to witness to the death and resurrection of Jesus in her proclamation of the Gospel of the Kingdom of God. In this work, we intend to analyze how the Trinity is the foundation of all communication and how the Church with her divine and human elements comes to be the vehicle of the perfect communication of God to Christians. Lastly, we will take the Small Christian Communities as places whereby effective communication can take place. Therefore, pastoral workers should constantly look for new methods and skills of communicating effectively the Gospel of Jesus, the one who is the perfect communicator.en_US
