Hace algunos años, durante un verano tranquilo en Roma, el Papa Francisco tomó un día de descanso para pasar un empo en privado con algunos viejos amigos, cuyas iden dades tomaron por sorpresa a los católicos italianos: protestantes evangélicos. Ellos dieron la bienvenida a Francisco a su iglesia pentecostal de la reconciliación, donde Francisco pidió perdón por las persecuciones católicas y celebró “la obra pentecostal” del Espíritu Santo. Francisco declaró que Satanás crea división en medio de los hijos de Dios, pero el Espíritu Santo crea una diversidad rica y hermosa. Y unidad, pero no uniformidad, Francisco especificó, sino unidad en la diversidad. Francisco nombró el don del Espíritu Santo “diversidad reconciliada”. El rico tesoro de Pentecostés de las lecturas de las Escrituras, para la vigilia del sábado y la liturgia del domingo por la mañana, rastrea la obra del Espíritu Santo desde el comienzo de la creación, mediante la resurrección de Jesús, hacia los primeros días de la Iglesia, ahora en nuestros días. Encerrados en nuestros corazones, el fuego gen l del Espíritu es nuestro para compar r generosamente, incluso con aquellos que son notablemente diferentes a nosotros. Todos los corazones son es mulados por la diversidad reconciliada.

Domingo de Pentecostés 9 de junio de 2019 Hemos sido bau zados en un mismo Espíritu para formar un solo cuerpo. — 1 Corin os 12:13a

Hoy celebramos la Pascua de Pentecostés. Esta es una de las tres Pascuas que cele-bramos los cris anos. Las otras dos son la Pascua de Resurrección (o Pascua Florida) y la Pascua del Nacimiento de Jesús. Estas tres solemnidades cris anas celebran tres momentos claves en el plan de salvación: la Encarnación del Verbo Divino (Jesús), su Pasión, Muerte y Resurrección y el descenso de su Espíritu Santo sobre la Iglesia. Pascua viene siendo el nombre de la principal solemnidad del calendario judío y recuerda la liberación del pueblo de Israel de la esclavitud. Los cris anos hemos tomado ese nombre por reconocernos como descendientes de Abraham y porque en nuestras tres pascuas celebramos que Jesús viene a salvarnos, o sea, a liberarnos del pecado y sus consecuencias tanto personales como sociales. En muchas partes el

tulo de Pascua se ha dejado para hablar de la Fiesta de la Navidad y la Fiesta de Pentecostés. Esto es una lás ma ya que el recordar la Pascua debe impulsar al cris-

ano a obrar por la liberación de todos para que el mundo se salve por Jesucristo.
