In Greek it is a number, fifty. It is the conclusion of the fifty days of the Easter season. This great solemnity completes the mission of Jesus on this earth and inaugurates the life of the Church in his name.

Our Christian story began when the eternal Son of God become human in the womb of Mary, a Jewish maiden, and was born as an offspring of King David in Bethlehem. The Epiphany—and we remember that the Magi were Gentiles, not Jews—manifested that Jesus was born as the Saviour, not only of the Jewish people from whom he had come, but of all people for whom he had come. His mission was universal. Pentecost concludes the mission of the Son of God upon this earth in his humanity, but it marks the beginning of the life and mission of Christ in his Church. The Church is now his body, his mystical body, filled with the life of his Holy Spirit, which is the soul of the Church. Through his Spirit, who fills the whole Church with life and love, Christ is faithful to his promise, “Know that I am with you always until the end of the world.” 5pm For the People Mon 25 May 12.10pm Marek Wlodarczyk Tues 26 May 12.10pm Pasquale & Maria Di Re (dec’d) Pray for Kevin James (int for good health) Wed 27 May 12.10pm Pietro Martinelli (dec’d) 7pm Ignazio De Bari (dec’d) Thurs 28 May 12.10pm Holy Souls and all Armed Forces Personnel Past and Present Fri 29 May 12.10pm Holy Souls in Purgatory 7pm Petra Zele (dec’d 5th anniv.)
