Acts of the Apostles 2, 1-11. "When the time for Pentecost was fulfilled, they were all in one place together."

Fr. Eric Nicolai preaches to a group of High School students at Ernescliff College in Toronto. On Pentecost the Church was born in Jerusalem. The Holy Spirit promised by Jesus descended on the apostles and disciples. Cardinal John Henry Newman reminds us that the Holy Spirit gives life to everything, and He turns “sinners into saints”.
