SOLEMNITY OF PENTECOST
June 5, 2022
Today we celebrate the gift of the Holy Spirit and the ways in which the Spirit inspires, guides,
and strengthens us to live as Christian disciples. Especially in the later weeks of Easter Time, we
have anticipated the advent of the Holy Spirit in the lives of the disciples and in the Church. Now
we hear the account of the first Pentecost, when, through the presence and power of the Holy
Spirit, the good News of Christ was shared with people from throughout the world. Those who
heard the disciples speaking were amazed and astonished at the power of God.
(Sourcebook, LTP, 2022, p. 224)
First Reading: Acts 2.1-11 – All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak
in other languages.
Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 12.3b-7, 12-13 – In the one Spirit we were all baptized into
one body.
Gospel: John 20.19-23 – As the father has sent me, so I send you. Receive the Holy
Spirit.

PRAYER TO THE HOLY SPIRIT
Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful.
And kindle in them the fire of your love.
Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created.
And you will renew the face of the earth.
Lord,
by the light of the Holy Spirit
you have taught the hearts of your faithful.
In the same Spirit
help us to relish what is right
and always rejoice in your consolation.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

St. Patrick’s Church was opened on March 17th, 1847 to serve the needs of the Irish immigrants
who had come to Montreal in great numbers due to the famine and other troubles in Ireland. The
church was built in the Gothic Revival style on a promontory overlooking the City of Montreal.
Its spire could be seen by all. Over the years the city grew north, east and west with the result that
the church is now surrounded by modern-day Montreal. St. Patrick’s Church was raised to the
status of Minor Basilica by His Holiness, Pope John-Paul II in 1989 because of its historical
importance as the mother church of the English-speaking Catholics of greater Montreal. The
Basilica has been designated a Historical Monument by the Government of Quebec and as a
National Historic Site by the Government of Canada.
If you would like to contribute in maintaining this historical and religious basilica, please consider
giving to Saint Patrick’s Restoration Foundation where the full amount is put towards
restoring our Basilica. All donations will receive a receipt for income tax purposes.
