NOVENA PRAYER TO THE HOLY SPIRIT - FOR PENTECOST
O Holy Spirit, beloved of my soul, I adore You.
Enlighten me, guide me, strengthen me, console me.
Tell me what I should do; give me Your grace.
I promise to submit myself to all that You desire of me
and to accept all that You permit to happen to me.
Let me only know Your Will.

A Happy Feast Day of Pentecost to you all. AMcF
