In his message for the observance of Pentecost Sunday, Cardinal Charles Maung Bo of Yangon said “the Holy Spirit has received bad press” from those who claim to be “anointed churches.”
Today’s Gospel speaks further to fortify our faith. Christ promises that we are not abandoned with his ascension. The powerful Holy Spirit will come as the disciples experience the Pentecost.
Cardinal Charles Maung Bo of Yangon, president of the Federation of Asian Bishops’ Conferences, called on the faithful to "stretch our imagination and intelligence, to learn in new ways, to prepare for a changed world" amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The president of the Federation of Asian Bishops’ Conferences joins the call of United Nations Secretary General, António Guterres, and the Holy Father Pope Francis, for a global ceasefire in face of the unprecedented and growing threat of the coronavirus pandemic.
