Father Behr writes:
Dear Parishioners,
Pentecost.
There are many names/titles for God the Holy Spirit in scripture.
Our Lord Jesus calls the Holy Spirit the Advocate and the Paraclete.
In the Nicene Creed we profess that the Holy Spirit is the One who proceeds from the Father and the Son who has spoken through the prophets.
The Holy Spirit is the spirit who brings truth, clarity and gives the gift of divine wisdom.
We should ask for the help of the Holy Spirit every day to guide us and strengthen us on our journey through life.
Prayer of St. Gertrude.
Honour and glory be unto Thee, O most sweet, most consoling, most mild, most meek, most kind, most merciful, most gracious Holy Spirit. Thou most sweet Comforter of pious souls, fill our hearts with Thy sevenfold graces and Gifts. Amen.
Fr Behr
