Happy Birthday Mother Church!

(Photo Credit: Wikipedia) Today, the Catholic Church is celebrating its Birthday. Biblically, on Pentecost Sunday, when the Holy Spirit came down to the Blessed Virgin Mary (Jesus' Mother) and the remaining disciples in the form of tongues of fire, that St. Peter spoke with boldness about the Lord Jesus Christ adding some more than 3,000 new Christians in Jerusalem on that day where everyone, "Parthians, Medes, and Elamites, inhabitants of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya near Cyrene, as well as travelers from Rome, both Jews and converts to Judaism, Cretans and Arabs" (Acts 2:1-11) could understand St. Peter's speech.

To all Catholics, Happy Birthday. May the Holy Spirit's gifts be upon you in your love ones' lives always.

God bless everyone!
