Pentecost, one of the most important liturgical holidays, marks the day the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles with tongues of fire. It marks the birthday of the Church.
Prayer of the Day
Mighty God, you breathe life into our bones, and your Spirit brings truth to the world. Send us this Spirit, transform us by your truth, and give us language to proclaim your gospel, through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
