00:00After Jesus ascended into heaven, the eleven apostles gathered in the Jerusalem upper room
00:04with Mother Mary in prayer. Devoting themselves with one accord to constant prayer,
00:09they waited faithfully for the Father's promised gift of spirit.
00:12When the sacred feast day of Pentecost arrived, they were all gathered together in one place with
00:17expectant hearts. Suddenly, a sound came from heaven like the rush of a mighty wind,
00:22filling the entire stone house. Divided tongues as of living golden fire appeared among them,
00:27and a flame rested upon each person gathered there. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit,
00:33and began speaking in other tongues with holy boldness. Devout Jews from every nation under
00:38heaven gathered outside in amazement, hearing their own native languages spoken clearly.
00:43Marveling in wonder, the multitude asked, How is it that we hear them proclaiming God's mighty
00:47saving works? Standing up with the eleven apostles, Peter lifted his voice and boldly proclaimed the
00:53risen Lord Jesus Christ. Come, O Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful today, and kindle in us
00:59your fire of love.
