Saint Canera, patroness of Irish Sailors, is sitting in a boat with an

oil lamp, the symbol of wisdom and virginity, with a monastery on

an island in the background where she sought spiritual rest. She

was refused entrance to the island but was given Eucharist just

before she died. The shamrock speaks to her Irish ancestry.

Querida Iglesia, Mis recuerdos de la infancia de Pentecostés son de un día cáli-do y húmedo, muchas veces en junio. La iglesia parroquial siem-pre tuvo dos grandes ramos de gladiolos rojo-anaranjados bri-llantes. Pocas veces en esos días veiamos esas flores brillantes en el altar. Esto hizo una profunda impresión en mí. Pentecostés es una fiesta dinámica-viento y lenguas de fuego y la predicación entusiasta entendida por personas de diversos orígenes lingüísticos. La venida del Espíritu sobre los apóstoles fue una experiencia que cambio su vida. Llenos de miedo y a puerta cerrada, el Espíritu Santo los transforma en predicadores celosos, intrépidos y au-daces. El resto de los Hechos de los Apóstoles parece ser conducido por esta gran presencia del Espíritu. Toda celebración sacramental es otro Pentecostés en que recibimos la efusión o presencia del Espíritu Santo. Esto es obvio en los sacramentos del Bautismo, la Confirmación y Orden Sagrado. En cada Eucaristía oramos para que el Espíritu venga sobre los regalos para que los haga Santos, transformándolos en el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo. Des-pués de la consagración, una vez más le pedimos al Espíri-tu que venga sobre cada uno de nosotros los que lo recibi-mos para que podamos llegar a ser un solo cuerpo y un solo Espíritu en Cristo. El Espíritu de hecho nos transfor-mara en un solo cuerpo, y un solo Espíritu lo tendremos si estamos abiertos a su inspiración en nuestras vidas. Cuan-do estamos unidos como una comunidad en la iglesia, po-demos estar seguros de que es a causa de la presencia del Espíritu entre nosotros. Ven Espíritu Santo, llena los corazones de tus fieles y en-ciende en ellos el fuego de tu amor! Con cariño, P. Hank

Dear Church, My childhood memories of Pentecost are of a warm humid day, many times in June. The parish church always had two large bouquets of brilliant red-orange gladioli. Seldom in those days did one see such bright flowers on the altar. It made a profound impression on me. Pentecost is such a dynamic feast—wind and tongues of fire and enthusiastic preaching being understood by people of various language backgrounds. The Spirit’s coming upon the apostles was a life-changing experience. Huddled in fear behind closed doors, the Holy Spirit transforms them into bold, fearless, zeal-ous preachers. The rest of the Acts of the Apostles seems driven by this outpouring of the Spirit. Every sacramental celebration is another Pentecost in that we receive the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. This is obvious in the sacra-ments of Baptism, Confirmation and Holy Orders. In every Eucharist we pray that the Spirit come upon the gifts to make them Holy by transforming them into the Body and Blood of Christ. After the con-secration, once again we ask that the Spirit come upon each of us who receive that we may become one Body, one Spirit in Christ. The Spirit will indeed make us one Body, one Spirit if we are open to his inspiration in our lives. When we are unified as a church community, we can be sure that it is because of the Spirit’s presence among us. Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful, and kindle in them the fire of your love!

With fond affection, Fr. Hank
