Christ promised that the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, would come to be with his disciples, and today we celebrate the fulfilment of that promise. The Spirit lives within us, bearing witness that we are indeed children of God our Father. We pray that we may be open to the power of the Spirit living in us, and that the Spirit will come anew and fill the hearts of the faithful, kindling in us all the fire of love.
