Pentecost Sunday - Year A - May 24, 2026

 Ipagpaumanhin po ninyo at wala kaming post last week. Bakasyon na kasi at wala nang allowance at isa pa still saving for our gadgets after nung baha nasira lahat ng gamit namin. Sana ay maunawaan ninyo.

Pentecost Year A celebrates the coming of the Holy Spirit. The readings show how the Spirit brings unity, renewal, and guidance to God’s people.

• Gift of the Holy Spirit: The Spirit comes to the disciples, giving them strength and wisdom. This gift helps them spread the message of Jesus.
• Unity in the Spirit: People from different places understand the disciples in their own languages. The Spirit brings people together, overcoming barriers.
• New Life in Christ: The Spirit brings life, just as in Ezekiel’s vision of dry bones. Through the Spirit, believers are made new and filled with hope.
• Power of God’s Presence: The readings describe God’s presence in fire, wind, and mighty works. The Spirit shows God’s power working in the world.
• Mission of the Church: Jesus sends His followers to share His message and offer forgiveness. The Spirit gives them courage and guidance to continue His work.
• Thirst for the Spirit: Jesus offers living water, which means the Spirit. Those who seek Him will be filled and renewed.

Pentecost Year A reminds us that the Spirit is always with us. The Spirit gives us strength, leads us to truth, and helps us live as followers of Jesus.
