Come Holy Spirit!!!

On Wednesday evening, I celebrated Mass for the beginning of the Religious Education program at St. Augustine in Washington, KS.  Since there was no particular feast for today, I took the prayers for the Votive Mass of the Holy Spirit.  We can always use the guidance of the Holy Spirit and we pray that our faith will be ignited by the Holy Spirit.  We are in a tough battle with our society and there are so many voices calling out to us, but only one voice is loud and clear and that is the voice of God.  We really need to work with and guide our young people for they are the future of the Church, but they are also the Church of today!  In all that we do, may the Holy Spirit guide us and help us as we continue to build the kingdom of God in our midst!
