Pentecost Sunday
Today we rejoice in the great feast of Pentecost, the day the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples and set the Church ablaze with courage, unity, and mission. What began as a frightened gathering in the Upper Room became a bold community ready to proclaim Christ to the world. The same Spirit who moved over the apostles moves among us now—renewing hearts, strengthening faith, and calling each of us to witness with joy.
Pentecost reminds us that we are never alone. God breathes His life into us, equips us with gifts for service, and gathers us as one Body in Christ. As we celebrate this holy day, may the fire of the Spirit rekindle our hope, deepen our love, and inspire us to share God’s goodness in our families, our parish, and our community.
Come, Holy Spirit—fill the hearts of Your faithful and kindle in us the fire of Your love.
May this Pentecost be a fresh beginning, a season of renewal, and a reminder that God is still doing something new in us and through us.
May Prayer
Heavenly Father,
As we enter the month of May, a season bright with new life and hope, we lift our hearts to You in gratitude. Thank You for the beauty of creation that surrounds us — the blooming flowers, the longer days, and the gentle reminders that You make all things new.
In this month dedicated to Mary, our Blessed Mother, we ask for her intercession and guidance. May her example of faith, humility, and courage inspire us to follow Your will with joyful hearts. Teach us to listen as she listened, to trust as she trusted, and to love as she loved.
Lord Jesus,
Help us grow closer to You during this Easter season. Strengthen our faith, renew our spirits, and deepen our desire to serve You in all we do. May our words bring peace, our actions reflect compassion, and our lives bear witness to Your resurrection.

May we walk with Mary, rejoice in Christ, and rest in the Father’s love. Amen.
