Homily for Pentecost Sunday, delivered in St Patrick's Catholic Church, Calliope, Qld.

"When Pentecost day came round, they had all met in one room, when suddenly they heard what sounded like a powerful wind from heaven, the noise of which filled the entire house in which they were sitting; and something appeared to them that seemed like tongues of fire..." (cf. Acts 2).

"Lord, send out your Spirit, and renew the face of the earth."

"No one can say, ‘Jesus is Lord’ unless he is under the influence of the Holy Spirit." (cf. 1 Cor 12).

"In the evening of the first day of the week, the doors were closed in the room... Jesus came and stood among them. He said to them, ‘Peace be with you... Receive the Holy Spirit.'" (cf. Jn 20).
