"Jesus presented himself alive to them by many proofs after he had suffered, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God. While meeting with them, he enjoined them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for "the promise of the Father about which you have heard me speak; for John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the holy Spirit." When they had gathered together they asked him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" He answered them, "It is not for you to know the times or seasons that the Father has established by his own authority. But you will receive power when the holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
Acts 1:3-8
Jesus, with the Father, sends us the gift of the Holy Spirit so that we might be transformed and equipped to carry out His mission in the word as His Body, the Church. We continue to pray and ask God to fill our parish ministries with the gifts and power of the Holy Spirit so that the world might come to know and believe in the name of the Lord Jesus.
