May 20We commemorate the Lord’s Day with the Solemnity of Pentecost. Today is the 50th and final day of Easter when we recall the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the disciples of Jesus who were gathered in the Upper Room. The Evangelist Luke tells us in Acts of the Apostles that it was at 9 o’clock in the morning when “…suddenly there came from the sky a noise like a strong driving wind, and it filled the entire house in which they were. Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them to proclaim.”
