PENTECOST SUNDAY

We arrive at the fiftieth day ‑ the completion of the Easter Season, and the completion of the Paschal Mystery: the Lord has died, is risen, has ascended to heaven and now gives birth to his Church, by sending the Spirit upon the apostles. This feast of the gift of the Spirit is so significant for us, because it marks the handing on of Jesus' ministry to the Church ‑ in the Church we are guaranteed the presence of the Lord, in his sacra­ments, in his ministers, in the Blessed Sacrament and in his Celebrated Word. It also marks the fulfilment of our thoughts about baptism throughout this season: the gift of the Spirit which we receive in Confirmation is the `seal' of our baptism, guaranteeing and confirm­ing all that baptism achieves.

Today, as I said in the previous post we are keeping as a special day of prayer, along with Christians throughout the world  "Thy Kingdom Come". At the end of Mass we will expose the Blessed Sacrament and take turns to keep vigil.

At 6pm we will sing the Evening Prayer of the Church and end with Benediction.  The Church will be open all day, so do come and pray if you are nearby!
