A Novena consists of praying a prayer during a period of nine days for a specific intention. The Pentecost Novena in honor of the Holy Spirit is the oldest of all novenas since it was first prayed at the direction of Our Lord Himself when He sent His Apostles back to Jerusalem to await the coming of the Holy Spirit on the first Pentecost. This Novena is addressed to the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity as a powerful plea for your personal intentions. Take this opportunity to come to know the Holy Spirit in a much deeper way and allow Him to guide, strengthen and console you.

Wild Goose - an Amazing Video Series:

God's love is the deepest desire of every human heart.  It is through the Holy Spirit that God pours forth His love into our heart.  A love that changes us and gives us meaning.  God's love is an unconditional love, a perfect love, an unending love.  It is what the apostles waited for when Jesus ascended into heaven.  Jesus told the apostles not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for "the promise of the Father about which you have heard me speak; for John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit." (Acts 1:4-5)  Now more that ever we need the power of the Holy Spirit to breath life into us.   
 
The Wild Goose segments help us to better understand the Holy Spirit.  Each segment is less than 30 minutes in length.  We encourage you to watch them as a family and then discuss with family and among friends.  Reach out to others and invite them to view a segment.  Then follow up and share what had meaning to you; becoming viewing buddies to encourage each other to keep watching and discussing.
