On Pentecost, we renew our apostolic zeal!

Today on Pentecost day, let’s ask for the grace to renew our apostolic zeal. Let’s remember that we are call to be personally involved in the New Evangelization of America. Yes, God is calling each one of us to proclaim the truths of the Gospel to our society.

It doesn’t mean that we are going to be so absolutely perfect and make no mistakes, or that we are going to pretend to be so spiritual that we have to reject and try to escape from the world in which we live.

No, it means that God is calling us to engage ourselves in the “New Evangelization” of our society. It means that we proclaim the dignity of the human person and the human body and put everything to the service and glory of God.

The act of faith begins in our hearts, but it is always made publicly. From this public confession of faith flows the responsibility to try to live our faith in a worthy manner.

Let us ask the Holy Spirit to help us renew our apostolic zeal and to begin again in our effort to live out our faith.
