LORD, SEND OUT YOUR SPIRIT, AND RENEW THE FACE OF THE EARTH
Today we celebrate Pentecost, the day when the outpouring of the Holy Spirit transformed a group of frightened, confused disciples into a strong, dedicated community—the Church. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, they be-gan boldly preaching the Good News to people of all languages, and making disciples in all nations, as Jesus had in-structed.
LITURGY OF THE WORD: Today’s first reading describes the Apostles’ experience of the Holy Spirit in which their lives became changed forever. In the second reading, we are made aware that the Spirit manifests itself through a variety of gifts that are used for the common good. In today’s Gospel, Jesus appears to his frightened disciples and offers them his peace.
