Blessed Solemnity of Pentecost!

Dear John,

Today on the Solemnity of Pentecost, the Church commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles, gathered around our Blessed Mother (Acts 2). The feast is always celebrated on the 50th and final day of the Easter season.

We have a special page dedicated to Pentecost. On this page, we are also offering a free eBook, The Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit, featuring the Novena in honor of the Holy Spirit. This is the oldest of all Novenas, since it was first made at the direction of our Lord Himself when He sent His apostles back to Jerusalem to await the coming of the Holy Spirit on the very first Pentecost. We hope this Novena inspires you and brings you closer to the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity.

Tomorrow the Church honors Mary, Mother of the Church. In 2018, Pope Francis added this feast day to the Church calendar, placing it the day after Pentecost. We have a special page dedicated to this memorial. On this page, we are offering an eBook, Behold Your Mother, that features the many titles of the Blessed Virgin.

We hope that you will visit these pages to read Q&As, watch videos, and download the eBooks related to these glorious feasts.

May God bless you on these joyous days!

In Christ,

Your EWTN Family
