Pentecost Sunday -- Sunday on the Fiftieth day of Easter*
Invocation of the Holy Spirit
Come, O Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Thy faithful
And enkindle in them the fire of Thy Love.
v. Lord, send forth Thy Spirit, and they shall be created
r. And Thou shalt renew the face of the Earth.
Let us pray:
O God Who, by the Light of the Holy Spirit, didst instruct the
hearts of the faithful, mercifully grant us, in the same Spirit,
to be truly wise, and ever to rejoice in His Holy Consolation,
through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen.
* Easter Sunday is the first Sunday after the first full moon of Spring. There are seven weeks of Easter, and Pentecost Sunday immediately follows.
