In the upper room the Apostles were gathered with Mary in prayer, waiting for the Holy Spirit as Jesus promised. The Spirit descended upon them with the sound of a strong wind and tongues as of fire rested on each of them. The Spirit gave them the gift of tongues and no longer where they afraid – they went openly into the streets and started to preach the Good News of Jesus. People from many places and languages, heard them in their own language speaking of the mighty acts of God. Three thousand converted to Christianity, and the Church was born on that day.
St Francis of Assisi was the first to refer to Mary as the spouse of the Holy Spirit. Let us ask Mary to renew the gifts of the Holy Spirit we received at Baptism and Confirmation, to bring them alive with a new power and zeal so that we too may proclaim the Gospel without fear! Let us prayer always, “Come Holy Spirit, come by means of the powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Your well-beloved Spouse.”
