Readings Reflection From the Pastor/Rector
Brothers & Sisters,
With today’s great Solemnity of Pentecost, we have
completed our journey throughout the Easter Season.
Today we mystically commemorate the descent of the
Holy Spirit upon the Twelve, an event that transformed
them from being simple disciples of Jesus Christ and
into Apostles. No longer were they only those who
learned about the Kingdom of Heaven at the feet of
the Son of God, but now they were those sent (the
Greek word that gives us apostle means “to send”) to
preach the Gospel, the Good News of the Kingdom.
Prior to Pentecost, they had been instructed to stay in
Jerusalem, but with the coming of the Spirit, they were
sent to preach in Jerusalem, Judea, and ultimately the
whole world.
This year, Pentecost is for us what it was for the
Apostles. Pentecost corresponds roughly to that time
when we, who have been ordered to stay in our homes,
can begin to go out into the world again. Through this
time of challenge, of not knowing when and how we
were going to encounter the Risen Lord, we have had
the chance to reflect on what the presence of Jesus
Christ means and how we shape our lives to receive
Him more completely. With Pentecost, we are
challenged to go out and reintroduce the world to the
God who made it.
Therefore, as our parishes begin the process of
reopening, we will call upon more volunteers to help
with the diocesan and state required usher and
cleaning/sanitizing duties. But even more importantly,
we are calling upon you to go out and invite people to
attend our outdoor masses. To have streaming parties,
as so many have, in our parking lots – a kind of Holy
Tailgating. You are necessary to preach the Gospel,
and call the many who have fled back to the Churches.
You have received the Holy Spirit. Do not be afraid, for
behold Jesus Christ is with you, even unto the end of
the age.
Fr. Millar
