Subject: [TAC] Novena to the Holy Spirit begins May 6 2005
Date: May 5, 2005 11:49 pm

Fratres,

We encourage you to prepare for the great Feast of Pentecost by praying
the Novena. This year the Feast of Pentecost is on Sunday, May 15 2005.
The Novena to the Holy Spirit begins Friday, May 6 2005 and you can find
it at the following:

Novena to the Holy Spirit:
Reference: http://www.ewtn.com/Devotionals/pentecost/seven_tx.htm

"Let us try to persevere in this rhythmn of the Church. In the course of
these days she invites us to take part in the novena to the Holy Spirit.
It may be said that this is the oldest of all novenas, that in a certain
sense it takes its origin from what Christ the Lord established. He
recommended that the Apostles pass these days in prayer, in expectation of
the descent of the Holy Spirit. That recommendation was not valid then
only. It is valid always. And the period of ten days after the Ascension
of the Lord brings the same call of the Lord with it every year. [....] We
must benefit by this time. Now too, let us try to collect our thoughts,
in a private way into the Cenacle together with Mary and the Apostles,
preparing our souls to accept the Holy Spirit and His action in us."
(Pope John Paul II, "Prayers and Devotions," p.209).

God Bless.

Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, pray for us!

St. Gianna Beretta Molla, pray for us!
