Pentecost Weekend

26 May 2023

Pentecost Sunday

This Sunday is the Feast of Pentecost. Celebrated on the 50th day after Easter, the feast of Pentecost commemorates the gift of the Holy Spirit to the Church. You're invited to wear red to church as we celebrate the birth of the Church and our call to 'preach the Gospel to the ends of the earth.'


Sunday school has concluded, but we will stay on our regular Mass schedule through the summer months: 8.30 am, Rite I Mass and 11.00 am - Sung Mass.


Almighty God, on this day you opened the way of eternal life to every race and nation by the promised gift of your Holy Spirit: Shed abroad this gift throughout the world by the preaching of the Gospel, that it may reach to the ends of the earth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
