This Sunday we come to yet another great day in the Christian year: the Sunday of Pentecost. Pentecost, which means fifty days, and which in the Christian calendar concludes the great fifty days of the Easter season, commemorates the sending of the Holy Spirit upon the disciples, animating them for their mission, giving birth to the Church. This Sunday we’ll recall a few important features of the story and reflect on why we should pray for a New Pentecost today.
