Thought for the
week
Today is Pentecost, which the Jews celebrated fifty
days after the Passover.
Today we celebrate the birthday of the
Church and
hear how Jesus sent his Holy Spirit to the disciples
just as He had promised to do.
The disciples were afraid then
what looked like small tongues of fire appeared and
spread out to
touch each one of them.
Suddenly they became all fired up by the
Holy Spirit to share the Good News with everyone.
Down came the
barriers of fear. Down came the language barrier!
The disciples
went around telling everyone about Jesus and
sharing all that He
had taught them.
They were no longer afraid for wherever they
went, Jesus went with them.
Now His spirit lived inside them and
they would never feel alone again.
“The Children’s Liturgy”
Come Holy Spirit, and fill our hearts with your love.
Work
through us to bring Jesus to those who do not know Him, so
that we
may share this love with others. Amen
