THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT   -  SOLEMNITY OF PENTECOST

Dear friends: Today is a very important day, especially for all Christians. We celebrate with joy the solemnity of "Pentecost".

Together with the Virgin Mary, our Mother, we are invited to receive the Holy Spirit who will give us strength and the necessary encouragement for our daily lives. Jesus tells his disciples that they will receive the capacity to speak a language that will be understood by all nations. This Spirit will be sent by His Father after Jesus' ascension to heaven and will always remain with His disciples, reminding them and completing the teachings of Jesus; leading them on the way of truth, love and peace. In this way they will not be left alone, but will be always accompanied by the Comforting Spirit, which is the Spirit of truth.

We must prepare ourselves on this wonderful day to receive the Holy Spirit; may our hearts be open to the many gifts that God wants to pour out upon us so that we may be strong witnesses and give Him much glory, doing good to those around us. May we all have a joyful celebration, so that the Holy Spirit may pour out His gifts upon us.

(Psalm 103) Send your Spirit, Lord, and renew the face of the earth.

BLESSED SOLEMNITY OF PENTECOST!!!
