On Sunday May 28th the Church will celebrate the Feast of Pentecost. An excellent way to prepare for this Feast is to make a Novena. VOICES has the Official Novena to the Holy Spirit posted. Novenas are prayed over nine days prior to the feast day. This year Friday May the 19th will mark the 1st day of the Novena, but you can start them at any time.
The novena to the Holy Spirit for the Seven Gifts is the oldest of all novenas. It was first made at the direction of Jesus himself, when he sent his apostles back to Jerusalem to await the coming of the Holy Spirit on the first Pentecost. It is still the only novena officially prescribed by the Church. Addressed to the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity, it is a powerful plea for the light and strength and love so sorely needed by every Christian. Holy Spirit Interactive has adapted it for these times. |
