On Sunday we celebrated the Feast of Pentecost, one of the great feasts of the Catholic Church.
The Feast of Pentecost is about God’s presence with us. In the story of Pentecost in the Acts of the Apostles, the disciples experienced the Holy Spirit entering each one of them and then drawing them together.
On that day, the first Christian community was born: a community of forgiveness, cultural diversity, sharing, equality, mutual support and benefit, and understanding and trust.
Pentecost is an invitation to us to open ourselves to the Holy Spirit living in us and in the world around us.
