COME HOLY SPIRIT COME, ON THIS PENTECOST SUNDAY.............

On the Day of Pentecost a great number of Peoples from a multitude of countries were present in Jerusalem as pilgrims thus magnifying the impact the Holy Spirit's Coming in the intermingling of persons of varying backgrounds, cultures, and languages.  That multiplicity and the capability the Gifts and Fruits the Spirit brought them and brings us provides a commonality of understanding and the Divine invitation of the Spirit Sending, Risen and Ascended Jesus to be Pentecost People on fire with Living Faith and ready to bring the livelihood and the power of the Holy Spirit to others.  The Acts of the Apostles teaches us we can do this as the Apostles and first Disciples did it, by being united in the mission and ministry of the Resurrection and receiving the the Promised Spirit of God's Perfect Love, which enables us persons of difference nationalities, cultures, and ways of life, to be empowered, strengthened, and sustained, in embracing the fullness of God's Spirit and renewing the face of the Earth in the anticipation and Truth of God's Infinite, Faith attained, Kingdom.............Fr.  Troy
