Alleluia, alleluia!
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit;
the God who is, who was, and who is to come.
Alleluia!
Gospel : Matthew 28:16-20
Go and make disciples of all nations
The eleven disciples set out for Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had arranged to meet them. When they saw him they fell down before him, though some hesitated. Jesus came up and spoke to them. He said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, make disciples of all the nations; baptise them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teach them to observe all the commands I gave you. And know that I am with you always; yes, to the end of time.’
Notes from meeting on 21 May 2024:
Picture
Picture of a dove carrying a branch aflame in its beak, it hovers over a group of people that have opened their hearts to the Holy Spirit.
The dove seeing the wide open hearts swoops down with the Holy Fire and places a flame within each open heart.
"My people, receive in full the Gift of The Holy Spirit and its seven fold fruits, this Gift will cause many people to turn to Me because they can see Me in you!
My people show others the Fruits of the Holy Spirit working in you and like small children they will imitate that which they see and so turn to Me!
You place your hope in Me and so you should, but I wish to place my Hope in you My beloved ones. Now is the time for the Flame of Love to burn in your hearts and lead souls to Me your Jesus.
I bless you by My Father and the Holy Spirit.
Always follow the pattern of My Mother and your Mother.
Your Jesus"
Come, Holy Ghost, Creator, come,
From thy bright heav’nly throne,
Come take possession of our souls,
And make them all thy own.
Thou who art called the Paraclete,
Best gift of God above,
The living spring, the living fire,
Sweet unction and true love.
Thou who art sevenfold in thy grace,
Finger of God’s right hand
His promise teaching little ones
To speak an understand.
O guide our minds with thy blessed light,
With love our hearts inflame;
And with thy strength, which never decays
Confirm our mortal frame.
Far from us drive our deadly foe;
True peace unto us bring;
And through all perils lead us safe
Beneath thy sacred wing.
Through thee may we the Father know,
Through thee the eternal Son,
And thee, the Spirit of them both,
Thrice-blessed Three in One.
All glory to the Father be,
With his coequal Son;
The same to thee, great Paraclete,
While endless ages run.
Amen.
On this day of Pentecost, the Church is filled with joy. Strengthened with measureless hope, we pray to Christ, who is calling his Church together in the Holy Spirit.
– Lord, renew the face of the earth.
Lord Jesus, raised on the cross, you poured out the water of rebirth for the life of the world.
Quicken the life of all men with the gift of the Spirit.
– Lord, renew the face of the earth.
Raised up to God’s right hand, you bestowed on the apostles the Father’s Gift;
your Church now waits for the same Gift, the same hope.
– Lord, renew the face of the earth.
You breathed your Spirit upon the apostles, and gave them the power of forgiveness:
set all men free today from the prison of sin.
– Lord, renew the face of the earth.
You promised to send us the Spirit of truth, that we might become your heralds throughout the world.
Through his presence in the Church may we bear faithful witness to you.
– Lord, renew the face of the earth.
We know that the Father is with us because of the Spirit he has given us. With this confidence we turn to you in prayer.
– Father, send your Spirit into the Church!
Father, you want to unite all men by baptism in the Spirit;
draw all believers together in mind and heart.
– Father, send your Spirit into the Church!
You sent the Spirit to fill the earth with your love;
let men build the human city in justice and peace.
– Father, send your Spirit into the Church!
Lord God, Father of all men, bring to your scattered children unity of faith:
make the world alive with the power of your Spirit.
– Father, send your Spirit into the Church!
By the work of the Spirit you create all minds afresh:
heal the sick, comfort the afflicted, and bring all men to salvation.
– Father, send your Spirit into the Church!
Through the Holy Spirit you raised your Son from the dead.
Raise us by the power of your Spirit when we come to your kingdom.
– Father, send your Spirit into the Church!
Lord God,
you sanctify your Church in every race and nation
by the mystery we celebrate on this day.
Pour out the gifts of the Holy Spirit on all mankind,
and fulfil now in the hearts of your faithful
what you accomplished when the Gospel was first preached on earth.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
2 Corinthians 1:20-22
20 For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God. 21 Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, 22 set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.
Lord Jesus, I confess that I am a sinner.
I believe that you died for me.
I welcome you into my heart in a whole new way, come into my life and take control.
Baptise me in the Holy Spirit and give me your gifts so I may serve the Church and help build your Kingdom.
Thank you for promising that you will never leave me or forsake me.
I love you, Jesus, My Lord and my God. Amen
What is Truth? (John 18:38)
I am the Way, the Truth and the Life (John 14:6)
But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. (John 16:13)
