HOMELIES DE L'ANNEE C #joie

On this day of Pentecost, we celebrate this marvelous gift that the Father gives us through his Son Jesus. The Holy Spirit reminds us of all that Christ said, so that we can proclaim it in turn. Every day the Church bathes us in the gifts of this Spirit through the various sacraments.

After his ascension, Christ exhorts us to wait with great patience for the coming of the Holy Spirit. Let us ask for the grace, during this time, to live in unity, which is a visible sign of the love of Christ's disciples.

Today we celebrate a great feast: the Solemnity of the Ascension. After his resurrection, we remained with Christ for 40 days before he departs from us today. He does not leave us orphans. He promises us his Spirit to continue the work he began.
