My previous comment is a kind of prayer that I myself ask from God “To show me what is unpleasing to Him and make me repent from doing it”. For me, I need to understand what I am praying for so I can recognise God’s graces on me. So, when I pray for the Holy Spirit to come upon me and touch me with God’s Love and Mercy, I know that God will listen to my prayer and help me to reach Him through our salvation: Jesus Christ, and may be allow me to evangelize according to His Teachings with wisdom and courage.

“Pray, pray and pray and never be tired from praying no matter what happens and God will listen”.

YES. The world need a new birth that start with repentance, and a torch to show each heart the right from wrong. A torch that will allow our actions/speech to shine on others and enlighten their way. We need to be one body ourselves, pray for ourselves and see the mistakes of our own body (check our hearts: do we all carry the Love & Mercy of God in our hearts for every creature on earth?), and this will fix others. We cannot preach what we don’t practice.

When the Holy Spirit came upon the Disciples:
* He showed them where their treasure is, so their hearts stayed there.
* He gave them all what they need to testify to the Truth leading to eternal life.
* He attached their hearts to Jesus Christ’s Sacred Heart who became their lamp that
lightened for them the darkness so that they, in turn, will enlighten to all.
* They started to see things through this Sacred Heart (“The eye is the lamp of the
body”) that hold all the love and mercy for every one of us.
* He made them commemorate God’s Law, speaking things that come from the Sacred
Heart and preaching, with wisdom, God’s Love & Mercy for all.
* He made them clean as all their actions (speech or thought) come from such Heart, as
Jesus Christ said.
“Blessed is the man who walks in justice and speaks what is true”. Amen

May the Peace of Jesus Christ (The coming of the Holy Spirit of Truth) be upon every leader, parent, priest, … and all for the Glory of God. Amen

I’m thankful to a radio station, where they encourage their listeners to help them in praying the Pentecost Novena. I decided to be part of this World prayer activity together with my family, relatives and friends. Being part of the youth, I understand that we are in the midst of crossroads. May this Novena help us in renewing our faith and love to our Lord. May God continue to shower His Blessings to all.

As Christians we must actively participate and
encourage others to join the world in praying for a new Pentecost.

For our part, we are dedicating our radio station in Iloilo to this novena for the next ten days. So, whoever you are … wheverever you are … in the office.. in the car… sitting quitely at home … you are not alone for together we join the rest of the world in asking Our Father in Heaven to make a miracle and send to our wounded world the Holy Spirit.

Even now, my family and I are feeling this wonderful and spiritually rewarding experience of of God’s peace and love. Rarely are we given this oppurtunity to serve to the Kingdom of Heaven.

We encourage everyone to do the same.

God Bless Us All.

“Come Holy Spirit, come by means of the powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, your well beloved spouse.” Amen! Amen! Amen!

I intend to forward and make known the Novena details to as many people as possible.

I will also endeavour to have a Mass offered on each of the nine days of the Novena. Can others around the world do the same?

For our Bishops I pray: “that all Bishops will uphold the true teachings of the Catholic Church and resist temptations to compromise doctrine in the face of cultural and social pressures.” Amen.

For our priests I pray: “that all priests may be open to the graces of the Holy Spirit to strengthen them for their task of bringing souls to God and God to souls; and that they may be on fire to convert the most hardened sinners, and bring God’s love to the whole world.” Amen.

For all peoples of the world I pray: that all peoples of the world, irrespective of race or creed, will come to know God and that He is Mercy and Love; and that Jesus Christ, the Returning King, is The Way, The Truth and the Life. Amen.

Do you realise that the Novena will, in fact, run for 10 days due to the International Date Line! Isn’t that great! And I think it’s awesome to know that we, here on the other side of the world, will be ‘kicking it off’!
(I wonder if I can rally some people together to begin the Novena just after midnight… )

May God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, bless each and every one of you.
