To get ready for the Holy Spirit Feast Day on Pentecost, the parish will begin a nine-day novena to the Holy Spirit. The Novena will begin May 14 following the 9 am Mass live-streamed at St. Vitus Church and after morning Mass each day of the novena.
To participate if you are unable to attend or view the Mass on the internet, say the day's prayer from the booklet.

Did you know the first Novena was requested of the apostles by Jesus, Himself. Jesus told the disciples (Luke 24:49) that he would send what his Father promised, but they were to stay in the city and wait till they were clothed in power. The apostles, with Mary, waited and prayed for 9 days—after which they received the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.
