June 12th 2011: Pentecost Gospel Reflection II

Happy Pentecost!

Happy Birthday Catholic Church!




Questions for Discussion and Reflection
-In the second reading (1 Corinthians chapter 12) St. Paul writes that to each individual the manifestation of the Spirit has been given for some benefit. What do you have to offer the world? What are the ways the Holy Spirit is made present to others through you or through others whom you are close?  

Gospel in Action
-Say a prayer today directed to God the Holy Spirit to be with you. “Dear Holy Spirit….”

-One of the most ancient prayers of the Catholic Church is repeating the words ‘Come Holy Spirit’ (or “veni sancte spiritus” in Latin) as a repeatable prayer or mantra. Use the beads of a rosary or your fingers to pray these words 50 times and allow God to dwell within you.
