Bishop Robert Barron's Sunday Sermon - May 24, 2026

For Pentacost Sunday - 05/24/26

The Gospel According to: John 20:19-23

On the evening of that first day of the week, when the doors were locked, where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, "Peace be with you." When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you." And when He had said this, He breathed on them and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained."

Resurrected Jesus passes through the locked doors of the upper room where His disciples were hiding from the Jews. Robed in white and glowing with an aura of light surrounding Him, He breathed upon His Disciples so they would receive the The Holy Spirit, the "Advocate," to live within them.

Greetings,

I hope that this email finds you well as we celebrate the Eight Days of Pentecost, or as it is known, The Octave of Pentecost.

I have, as usual, attached the bulletin to the "About" pages for your perusal. I hope that you will find it informative.

I have also included below a link to much of the work by Fr. Mike Schmitz. Fr. Schmitz is a Catholic priest of the Diocese of Duluth Minnesota, and a nationally recognized speaker and catechist.

Among other presentations, Fr. Schmitz is widely known for, among other things, his programs; The Bible in a Year and The Catechism in a Year.

In closing, I share with you a mention of a remarkable sacramental event that I, and about 8,000 others, were witness to at the SunDome this Sunday afternoon; the administration of the Sacrament of Confirmation by the imposition of hands, and the anointing of the foreheads of the confirmandi with Sacred Chrism. I will forward photos of this event as soon as they are available.

Pentecost blessings to you and your family.
