Happy Birthday to the Catholic Church! 🎉
Today, Pentecost Sunday, we celebrate the “Birthday of the Church.” It was on this day in ~33 A.D. that the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles (Acts 2:1–4), marking the moment the Church was publicly manifested and began her mission to evangelize all nations.
From that day, when about 3,000 souls were baptized (Acts 2:41), until this year 2026, our Church continues to grow in faith and love — nearly 1,993 years of grace and truth.
Christ Himself promised: “You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church” (Matthew 16:18). Today, we honor that promise and rejoice in the gift of our faith. 🙌✨
