Dear Parishioners:
Today we celebrate the Feast
of Pentecost! We commemorate this
important event, which took place
fifty days after the Resurrection of
Christ, namely - the pouring forth of
the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and disciples gathered
around Mary, the Mother of Jesus, in the Cenacle.
What began on Easter, today finds its fullness and
its completion. On the evening of Easter, the risen Jesus
gave the Holy Spirit to his disciples for the first time, so
that they might receive him in fullness on Pentecost. There
is no difference between the Spirit which was given on the
evening of Easter and the Spirit which spread forth
throughout the earth on Pentecost; because there is a single
Spirit.
However, on the evening of Easter, Jesus is on
earth, and not yet in Heaven with the Father. That is, Jesus
does not yet see his Father who is in Heaven. If Jesus, as a
man, already possesses the beatific vision of God, since he
is risen, it is nonetheless but the beginning of this vision. It
is a real and lasting happiness, but one which remains in its
initial state. It cannot be otherwise as long as Jesus remains
on earth. Also, when Christ gives the Holy Spirit to the
Apostles on the evening of Easter, it is the beginning of
Pentecost, awaiting its full realization fifty days later.
On Pentecost, the Holy Spirit was given to the
Apostles and on that day, the Church was born. The
Church came into the world, the Body of Christ began to
grow and develop into the fullness that must belong to it at
the end of time. Mary, the Mother of Jesus, and other
disciples, also received the Gift of the Holy Spirit, but they
did so differently than the Apostles. Indeed, the latter, the
Apostles, accepted this Gift not only for themselves, but
also in order to give it to others - to all who would believe
in Jesus the Son of God - not without discernment, but
rather in proportion to their faith and to the mission they
would receive from these same Apostles and their
successors throughout the ages. Thus it is that which took
place almost two thousand years ago that continues in the
Church, through the successors of the Apostles, until the
glorious return of the Son of God!
Happy Feast of Pentecost!
