HOLY SPIRIT CATHOLIC CHURCH
The Parish Office will be closed
from Saturday, May 26 thru
Monday, May 28 in observance
of Memorial Day. There will
not be a 6:30 AM Mass on Monday, May 28.
Please pray for the safety of
all the men and women
serving overseas.
Pentecost is the celebration of
the fulfillment of our Lord’s
promise to send his disciples
the Paraclete to be their companion and guide. Before his
ascension, he told them to “stay in the city until
you are clothed from on high.”
The Acts of the Apostles tells us a story when
the time for Pentecost was fulfilled. There was a
driving wind that shook the entire house, and
there appeared to the disciples tongues of fire
which parted and came to rest on each one of
them. Filled with the HOLY SPIRIT, the disciples began to speak in different tongues as the
Spirit enabled them to proclaim.
We all know the rest of the story. CHRISTIANITY was born, and 3,000 people were baptized
that day of Pentecost. The simple band of men
and women were empowered to preach repentance
and forgiveness in Jesus’ name to all. LIVES
were changed forever.
Our community joins the joyful celebration of
Pentecost. Our church has been dedicated to
God’s HOLY SPIRIT. The descent of the Holy
Spirit upon the Christian world is our fiesta.
Think of the hundreds of people who have celebrated the Sacraments of Baptism, First Eucharist,
Confirmation and Marriage in our church since it
was founded. Think of all those who have served
in our parish and those who have come and found
God in our Church. Every Sunday we have almost 7,000 people who come to celebrate Mass
here at Holy Spirit. I’m always thankful for all
who come to celebrate with our parish family the
birthday of the Catholic Church, which is also the
fiesta of our local community. We have a reason
for rejoicing. Amen.
Fr. Mario
