Announcing the Jubilee Y ear of Mercy, Pope Francis challenged us to proclaim God’s
mercy “to everyone without exception . . . again and again, with new enthusiasm and
renewed pastoral action” (Misericordiae Vultus, 12). Pentecost proclaims that the door
locked for fifty days is thrown open at last. No longer closed in on itself, the community
speaks to crowds from different backgrounds, distant lands, exotic languages. Everyone
hears their native language. The Spirit does not restore Babel’s uniformity, but forges unity-in-diversity of
language, race, nationality—embracing all without exception. During this Jubilee Y ear of Mercy, Pentecost’s
Spirit summons us afresh from mediocrity and isolation to share God’s mercy with the world. “This is our
mission!” Francis exclaims. We are “given the gift of the ‘tongue’ of the Gospel and the ‘fire’ of the Holy Spirit,
so that while we proclaim Jesus risen, living and present in our midst, we may warm . . . the heart of the peoples,
drawing near to Him, the way, the truth, and the life” (Regina Coeli address, Pentecost Sunday, May 24, 2015).

ANNOUNCEMENTS
COME HOLY SPIRIT
THE FULLNESS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
The church wakes up to an amazing message this
morning. Look around and see who has been called. Listen to the voices of those who proclaim Jesus is Lord.
You’ll find no race of people left out; you’ll find no language on earth unfit to proclaim the glory of God. We call
Pentecost Sunday the “birthday of the church.” In many
ways, the church is still being born. Only when we all
know the peace Jesus offered in today’s Gospel will we
really know the fullness of the Holy Spirit.
St. Paul assures us in today’s second reading that “all
of us have been given to drink of the one
Spirit.” When we look around us in the church we should
see everyone. But we don’t. Not yet. What is holding us
back from fully embracing the one Body of Christ? When
will we see our differences as manifestations of the same
Holy Spirit? Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
“Order” and “presbyter” are not everyday words in
our vocabulary, since we think of order as a quality of life
rather than a collective noun, and “priest” usually does
just fine in everyday conversation. Yet each word has
deep roots in our tradition. At an ordination we select men
for service to the community. Ordo is a Latin word drawn
not from pagan religious life but from Imperial Rome. It
meant a distinct body standing apart from the people, such
as a body of people responsible for civil governance, senators for example. Think of the selectmen or board of governors in your civic home, and you will get the idea. The
church borrowed the term to describe the place of certain
people within the people of God, thus the “order of deacons,” “the order of presbyters,” and even “the order of
virgins, catechumens, widows, neophytes, penitents,” and
so on, as distinct groups within the church.
Just as ancient Rome had various uniforms for the
ranks and stations in civil life, so too did certain garments
give clues to membership in an “order” in the church. So,
our tradition favors the idea of an ordination liturgy not as
receiving something so much as being received. This is
clearly expressed in the liturgy. The “kiss of peace” is given only by the ordaining bishop and priests to the newly
“ordained,” not by the faithful, the deacons, or the concelebrating bishops who are present.

A PRAYER TO THE SPIRIT
Spirit of Jesus,
poured out in flames of fire upon your disciples
on the day of Pentecost,
we pray to you:
Set afire the hearts of your faithful
so that they will announce
in all the languages of the world
the wonders of the salvation of God.

Domingo de Pentecostés

Hemos sido bautizados en un
mismo Espíritu
para formar un solo cuerpo.
— 1 Corintios 12:13a
LECTURAS DE HOY

apóstoles empezaron a hablar en lenguas (Hch 2:1-11).
Salmo — Envía, Señor, tu Espíritu, a renovar la tierra.
Aleluya (Salmo 104 [103]).
Segunda lectura — Fuimos bautizados en el Espíritu para

Año Jubilar de la Misericordia
Solemnidad de Pentecostés
Al anunciar el Año Jubilar de la
Misericordia el Papa Francisco nos
desafía a proclamar la misericordia de
Dios “a todos, sin excluir ninguno . . . una vez más con
nuevo entusiasmo y con una renovada acción pastoral”
Misericordiae Vultus, 12). Pentecostés proclama que la
puerta cerrada por cincuenta días finalmente se abre. No
más encierro en sí misma, la comunidad habla a las multitudes con diferentes orígenes, de tierras lejanas, exóticos
lugares. Cada uno los escucha en sus leguas nativas. El
Espíritu no restaura la uniformidad de Babel, pero fragua
la unidad en la diversidad del idioma, de la raza, de la
nacionalidad, incluyendo a todos sin excepción. Durante
este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia, el Espíritu de Pentecostés nos convoca de nuevo desde la mediocridad y la
soledad para compartir la misericordia de Dios con el
mundo. “¡Esta es nuestra misión!” lo dice el Papa Francisco. “Se nos dio el don del ‘idioma’ del Evangelio y el
‘fuego’ del Espíritu Santo, para proclamar a Jesús resucitado, vivo y presente en medio de nosotros y para alentar
los corazones de las personas, acercándolas a Jesús, el
Camino, la Verdad y la Vida” (Rezo del Regina Coeli,
Domingo de Pentecostés, 24 de mayo de 2015).

Prayer of Pope
Francis for the
Jubilee
Lord Jesus Christ,
you have taught us to be merciful like the
heavenly Father,
and have told us that whoever sees you sees Him.
Show us your face and we will be saved.
Your loving gaze freed Zacchaeus and Matthew
from being enslaved by money;
the adulteress and Magdalene from seeking happiness only in created things;
made Peter weep after his betrayal,
and assured Paradise to the repentant thief.
Let us hear, as if addressed to each one of us, the
words that you spoke to the Samaritan woman:
“If you knew the gift of God!”
You are the visible face of the invisible Father,
of the God who manifests his power above all by
forgiveness and mercy:
let the Church be your visible face in the world, its
Lord risen and glorified.
You willed that your ministers would also be
clothed in weakness
in order that they may feel compassion for those in
ignorance and error:
let everyone who approaches them feel sought after, loved, and forgiven by God.
Send your Spirit and consecrate every one of us
with its anointing,
so that the Jubilee of Mercy may be a year of
grace from the Lord,
and your Church, with renewed enthusiasm,
may bring good news to the poor,
proclaim liberty to captives and the oppressed,
and restore sight to the blind.
We ask this of you, Lord Jesus, through the intercession of Mary, Mother of Mercy; you who live
and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit for
ever and ever.
Amen.
Oración de
Papa
Francisco
Señor Jesucristo,
tú nos has enseñado a ser misericordiosos como el
Padre del cielo, y nos has dicho que quien te ve,
lo ve también a Él.
Muéstranos tu rostro y obtendremos la salvación.
Tu mirada llena de amor liberó a Zaqueo y a
Mateo de la esclavitud del dinero;
a la adúltera y a la Magdalena del buscar la
felicidad solamente en una creatura;
hizo llorar a Pedro luego de la traición,
y aseguró el Paraíso al ladrón arrepentido.
Haz que cada uno de nosotros escuche como
propia la palabra que dijiste a la samaritana:
¡Si conocieras el don de Dios!
Tú eres el rostro visible del Padre invisible,
del Dios que manifiesta su omnipotencia sobre
todo con el perdón y la misericordia:
haz que, en el mundo, la Iglesia sea el rostro
visible de Ti, su Señor, resucitado y glorioso.
Tú has querido que también tus ministros fueran
revestidos de debilidad para que sientan sincera
compasión por los que se encuentran en la
ignorancia o en el error:
haz que quien se acerque a uno de ellos se
sienta esperado, amado y perdonado por Dios.
Manda tu Espíritu y conságranos a todos con su
unción para que el Jubileo de la Misericordia sea
un año de gracia del Señor y tu Iglesia pueda, con
renovado entusiasmo, llevar la Buena Nueva a los
pobres proclamar la libertad a los prisioneros y
oprimidos y restituir la vista alos ciegos.
Te lo pedimos por intercesión de María, Madre
de la Misericordia, a ti que vives y reinas con el
Padre y el Espíritu Santo por los siglos de los
siglos.
Amén.
