PENTECOST SUNDAY
First Reading: Acts 2:1-11
During the Feast of Pentecost, tongues of fire came to
rest on the heads of the disciples and they were filled
with the Holy Spirit. Each disciple began speaking in a
different language, and were understood by people from
many different regions who were amazed at what they
had witnessed.
Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 12:3b-7, 12-13
Paul explains that we are all members of one body. We
have all been baptized in one Spirit and although
numerous, we are one through Christ.
Gospel: John 20:19-23
John describes Jesus’ first visit to the disciples after his
resurrection. He gave them the Holy Spirit and the power
to forgive other people or hold them responsible for their
actions.

PENTECOST SUNDAY
“In the same way, the Spirit too comes to the aid of our weakness; for we do not know
how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes with inexpressible groaning.
And the one who searches hearts knows what is the intention of the Spirit, because he
intercedes for the holy ones according to God’s will.”
The Pentecost event is so well known. The signs of fire, wind and noise accompany the
transforming power of the Holy Spirit. What was is no more, as the fear which brought them
together was unlocked as were the doors and a new era began.
The Spirit which Jesus breathed into the apostles became the breath of new life for the church
as the Spirit of God sent them to renew the face of the earth. As the doors were opened, the
windows of Aggiornamento of Pope Saint John 23rd allowed new life to spring forth in the
church.
The Spirit comes to us in our weakness today, as we do not have all the answers but He
intercedes for us, allowing us to be spirit driven to bring the gospel to our waiting world.
