Pentecost Sunday Page 3
Father’s Day Offertory envelopes will be placed at the Tabernacle throughout June as a
reminder to us all to pray for the men who loved us enough to give us the gift of life.
Dear Friends in Christ:
Today on the feast of Pentecost we celebrate what is sometimes referred to as the Birthday of the Church. This is because it marks the time when the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles enabling them to pick-up and continue the ministry of Jesus. Before they received the Holy Spirit, they were hiding away for fear of what would happen to them because of their association with Jesus. But, once having received the Holy Spirit, everything changed for them.
St. Paul refers to the gifts of the Holy Spirit in addressing the Corinthians (1 Cor. 12:4-11). Some exhibited manifestations of the Spirit in outward signs such as speaking in tongues and in other spiritual charisms. A few weeks ago we heard of how the Holy Spirit guided the early Church's decision with regard to gentile converts and circumcision (Acts 15: 1-29).
But the Holy Spirit did not come into existence at Pentecost. It is quite possible for a power to have always existed but not revealed or discovered until a certain moment in time. For instance, humans did not create nuclear power; it always existed, but only in our time did they discover how to tap into it.
Before Pentecost and at the beginning of the ministry of Jesus we hear about the Spirit descending upon Jesus at his Baptism by St. John the Baptist in the Jordan. Moreover, when we pray the Creed at Mass, we acknowledge that it was the same Spirit who spoke through the prophets who came before the Incarnation of the Lord. So the Spirit existed in eternity in the Blessed Trinity, but the Bible highlights those extraordinary events which show the activity of the Spirit of God.
In Baptism, we, too, have received the Holy Spirit and in Confirmation we are sealed with this gift. Throughout our lives, we may receive promptings of the Holy Spirit in various ways. But have we tapped into the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives? For as Jesus said:
"For everyone who asks, receives, and they who seek, find, and to them who knock, it will be

Perinatal Comfort Care of Tampa provides comfort and support to families who receive a poor prenatal diagnosis, is now a ministry of Catholic Charities. When a life-limiting prenatal diagnosis is made, parents are devastated and often receive a recommendation to terminate their pregnancy.
Given little information or support in making their decision, many choose to abort their baby. In reality, there is no continuum of care for families who choose to continue their pregnancy. As a pro-life ministry, Perinatal ComfortCare is dedicated to walking a journey of a lifetime with these families. This ministry was created as a bridge to help support families who choose to carry despite the diagnosis and to honor and give dignity to their unborn baby. For more information call Kathy DeSanto, RN at 401-5383 or visit: ComfortCareTampa.com

RECONCILED DIVERSITY A few years ago, during Rome’s quiet summer, Pope Francis took a day off to visit privately with some old friends, whose identity took Catholic Italy by surprise: Evangelical Protestants. They welcomed Francis to their Pentecostal Church of Reconciliation, where Francis asked pardon for Catholic persecutions and celebrated the Holy Spirit’s “pentecostal work.” Unlike Satan, declared Francis, who creates division among God’s children, the Holy Spirit creates a diversity rich and beautiful. And unity; not uniformity, Francis specified, but unity in diversity. Francis named the Spirit’s gift “reconciled diversity.” Pentecost’s rich treasury of scriptural readings, for Saturday’s vigil and Sunday’s morning liturgy, traces the Holy Spirit’s work from creation’s beginning, through Jesus’ resurrection, into the church’s earliest days, now into our days. Kindled in our hearts, the Spirit’s gentle fire is ours to share generously, even with those most strikingly different from us. All hearts are Spirit-warmed by reconciled diversity. Copyright © J. S.
