PENTECOST SUNDAY
My brothers and sisters in Christ,
The great solemnity of Pentecost has arrived. Fifty days
after Jesus rose from the dead and forty days after he as-
cended to the heights of heaven, the Consoler, the Para-
clete, the Breath of Almighty God, the Power of the Most
High, the Spirit of burning, judgment, revelation, holiness,
truth, fear of the Lord, knowledge, understanding, might,
counsel, wisdom, adoption, prophecy, grace and life came
to the disciples in the upper room of Jerusalem. He fulfilled
the promise Jesus made to the disciples. We have been
living in the age of the Spirit ever since. The Holy Spirit is
the Lord the giver of the Life who proceeds from the Father
and the Son. With the Father and Son, He is worshipped
and glorified. Until Christ comes again, God will continue to
give us His very self through the Holy Spirit, sanctifying and
feeding us, changing bread and wine into the Body and
Blood of Christ. May the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, first
given to you at your baptism, fill you with His grace so that,
to paraphrase St. Paul, it is no longer you who live, but
Christ who lives in and through you.
– Father Michael
