The Descent of the Holy Spirit
The Descent of the Holy Spirit is the third of the five Glorious Mysteries of the rosary, prayed on Sundays and Wednesdays.
And when the days of the Pentecost were accomplished, they were all together in one place: And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. And there appeared to them parted tongues as it were of fire, and it sat upon every one of them: And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they began to speak with divers tongues, according as the Holy Ghost gave them to speak.
Acts 2:1-4 (Douay-Rheims)
