Join Fr. Romke for a special event on the eve of Pentecost which will an evening to experience the Power of the Holy Spirit in a renewed way!  Adoration  Praise & Worship  Personal prayer for a new outpouring of the Holy Spirit The book of Acts unpacks the events immediately following Jesus’ ascension into heaven. The Apostles and other disciples were told to pray in Jerusalem and await another outpouring of the Holy Spirit. It was on that first Pentecost that God chose to send the Holy Spirit. As he burst out onto the balcony above the multinational crowd, Peter proclaimed the message of the resurrection, and the Holy Spirit enabled every listener to hear in their native language, many also received gifts of healing, prophecy, supernatural knowledge and discernment and more! 3,000 people were baptized that day! The disciples — and every baptized person — receives the gifts and zeal necessary to bring a new message of salvation to the people of God. The gifts poured out on the Apostles are still available to us today and are being poured out on Catholics all over the world!
