2 PENTACOST May 31, 2020

There is an old fable about a changeling eagle. A tribal who lived in a forest, one day found an eagle’s egg. He took the egg home and hatched it along with the other chicken eggs. This eaglet started growing up with the other chicks. It started

eating white ants and little worms, pecking and hopping here and there like the other chicks. But it never learned to fly like an eagle. One day as it was foraging for food from the ground, it saw an eagle majestically soaring high in the sky. As the eaglet was admiring the grandeur of the soaring eagle, the other chicks came and said to the eaglet, “Look, that is the eagle –the king of the birds. You and I are chickens. We cannot fly like the eagle.” Often we lead poor lives without realizing the power inherent in us. We are like that eaglet helplessly admiring the power in others when we ourselves possess that power. Very often we end up in defeat, frustration and failure because we are ignorant of the power God has given us through His Spirit. We can do marvelous things when we associate with God. St. Paul very confidently said, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Phil: 4:13) (John Rose in ‘John’s Sunday Homilies’) The word Pentecost literally means "Fiftieth,” because the feast was celebrated fifty days after the Feast of the Passover. Pentecost marks the end and the goal of the Easter season. For Christians it is a memorial of the day the Holy Spirit descended on the apostles and the Virgin Mary in the form of fiery tongues, an event that took place fifty days after the resurrection of Jesus. Pentecost celebrates the “incarnation” of the Holy Spirit into the world of men and women. Pentecost also commemorates the official inauguration of the Christian Church by the apostolic preaching of St. Peter, resulting in the conversion of 3000 Jews to the Christian faith. It is thus the official birthday of the Church. "Pentecost is the birthday of the Church Jesus established nearly 2,000 years ago." Today’s Scripture readings remind us that Pentecost is an event of both the past and the present. The main theme of today’s readings is that the gift of the Holy Spirit is something to be shared with others. In other words the gift of the Holy Spirit moves its recipients to action and inspires them to share the Spirit and His gifts with others. Daily Masses: We have daily Masses in different times. Tue. & Wed. @ 7am, Thu. @ 12pm and Fri. @ 6pm, so that people can attend at least one mass in a week and can reduce the number of the attendees on weekend masses. If this doesn’t help some people then we might think of moving our masses to normal times.
