Holy Spirit Baltimore

Archbishop Lori describes how, for many, the teaching of the Church regarding the Holy Spirit is a “Dead Letter”. He goes on to encourage the seeking of “Extraordinary Manifestations” of the Spirit that some consider “too wild and wooly”. He quotes Pope St. John Paul II encouraging seeking of “Charismatic Dimension” and states that this is needed in our Church today, to make it alive. He insists that we will not be able to evangelize our current society with just logic, but we need to be transformed from teachers into witnesses. He concludes by saying, “Only in the Holy Spirit will we renew the face of the earth. Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful. Amen. Alleluia”
