Dear Parents
Today is Pentecost Sunday, described as the birthday of the Church, as it was the day the Apostles received the Holy Spirit in the Upper Room.
Filled with joyful courage and powerful faith, they took up Jesus' command to go to the ends of the earth to spread his Good News.
So it is our feast day, as we wouldn't be Christians if Pentecost hadn't happened....
Here is the final video for the Pentecost Novena that I know some of us have been following today: https://youtu.be/8vt-Ql8tbCo
There is also a children's liturgy where we can listen to the Gospel of the day: https://youtu.be/jQPb6hA2v3g
Here is Fr Rob's Mass from Australia: https://youtu.be/zvN3tkntWbM
Finally there was a beautiful version of Amazing grace, sung in different languages, which couldn't be more appropriate than for Pentecost Sunday, given the Apostles burst from the Upper Room with the gift of tongues, able to speak to people from many countries
with every blessing
