Lowell Catholic High School Reflection on Pentecost Sunday
Niklas Arhin Boateng "God is always more."
Undecided Have you ever heard that?
Sydney Jane Brophy If we truly believe that He is infinite,
Bishop Guertin then this statement is worth exploring.
Leonardo Pacheco Goncalves Caldes Today, we celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit
Greater Lowell Tech in power upon the early Church.
Liam Thomas Conley But Pentecost wasn't the first time
Austin Prep the disciples received the Holy Spirit.
Mason Jeffrey Crowley The Gospel actually occurs chronologically before
Central Catholic High School Pentecost. Soon after the Resurrection,
Brandon Caldas Dias Jesus already "came and stood in their [the disciples']
Innovation Charter Academy midst... he breathed on them and said to them,
Hope Susan Dinsmore 'Receive the Holy Spirit.'"
Lowell Catholic High School
Isabella Vittoria DiSalvo God is always more.
Shawsheen Tech High School Sometimes we might think the grace of God as one
Madeline Kennedy Golden and done. God might break through in people's lives,
Greater Lowell Tech but it's a one-time event on a retreat or preceding
Shawn Harold Hines a dramatic conversion of life.
Lowell Catholic High School But there's always more to come.
Elisabeth M. Isaak Even today's Gospel isn't the first time
Central Catholic High School the breath of God stirred. In Genesis,
Donovan Enrico Laurent it's God's breath that stirs life into Adam in the garden.
Central Catholic High School Jesus breathes on the Apostles,
Serenah Alyssa Matthews giving them the Holy Spirit in the quiet and silence.
Lowell Catholic High School Later, that breath will stir into a "driving wind",
Lily McHugh and the Spirit will descend with flame...
Lowell Catholic High School not unlike Moses on Mount Sinai.
Avry Elizabeth McKiernan
Bishop Guertin God is always more.
Olivia Madison McSorley He has spoken throughout salvation history,
Austin Prep and continues to speak into our lives through His Church
Gracilyn Paige Rivera and through the Holy Spirit alive in our hearts.
Bishop Guertin This Pentecost Sunday,
Christina Elizabeth Rainone let us come before Him with expectant hearts!
Shawsheen Tech High School Like the disciples in the Gospel and first reading,
Arianna Leigh Rivera let us await what "more" God will do.
