Pentecost Weekend

“On the Feast of Pentecost, Christians commemorate the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles, gathered around the Mother of the Lord (Acts chapter 2). The feast is celebrated on the 50th and final day of the Easter season. In 2024, Pentecost falls on Sunday, May 19.”

EWTN: What is Pentecost?

 

“When the time for Pentecost was fulfilled, they were all in one place together. And suddenly there came from the sky a noise like a strong driving wind, and it filled the entire house in which they were. Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit.”
-Acts 2:1-4

Daily Readings

 

“Red is the official Church color for Pentecost, symbolizing the fire of the Holy Spirit.” Many Catholics will wear red on this Sunday to reflect this with their own dress.
