3rd - The Descent of the Holy Spirit

The apostles were full of fear and locked themselves in the Upper Room.
When the Holy Spirit descended on Mary and the apostles, what joy for Mary's Heart!
Jesus had promised to send the Holy Spirit. A great wind blew and over their heads appeared parted tongues of fire.
They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in foreign tongues.
What joy for Mary to see the apostles transformed from fear to fearlessness!
Oh, Holy Spirit, come to us and fill our hearts with the fire of Your love.
Where we are full of fear, make us fearless.
We long to have the courage to do all God asks of us. Oh, Holy Spirit, give us this courage.
Holy Spirit, lead us to intimate oneness with You, the Father, the Son and Mary.
Oh, Holy Spirit, set us on fire for love of God.
