Pentecost-The end of Easter
Why Is Pentecost Important in the Catholic Church?
Pentecost is important because it reveals the Holy Spirit’s mission in the life of the Church. Jesus did not leave his disciples to carry out the gospel by their own strength. He sent the Holy Spirit to guide, sanctify, strengthen, and unite them.
That is why Pentecost is often called the “birthday of the Church.” Strictly speaking, the Church was already being formed during Christ’s public ministry, especially through his calling of the apostles, his teaching, and the sacraments he instituted. But Pentecost is the moment when the Church is made manifest to the world and begins her public mission with boldness.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church affirms that the Church was made manifest to the world on Pentecost through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, and that this begins the age of the Church, in which Christ continues to act through the sacraments and the liturgy. In founding his one Catholic Church, Jesus restored and fulfilled the kingdom of God, as his Church is indeed the New Covenant Israel.
