• During the Mass for the Solemnity of #Pentecost, #PopeLeoXIV recalls how the Holy Spirit accomplished “something extraordinary” in the lives of the Apostles, and suggests that today, the Holy Spirit likewise descends upon us, ready to shatter our inner chains, fears, and hardened hearts, to make us new.

      Pope Leo XIV reaffirmed, “Pentecost renews the Church, renews the world!”

      “May the strong wind of the Spirit,” Pope Leo concluded before imploring the Blessed Mother in prayer, “come upon us and within us, open the borders of our hearts, grant us the grace of encounter with God, enlarge the horizons of our love and sustain our efforts to build a world in which peace reigns.”
