Today the Catholic church celebrates the descend of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and the Virgin Mary, falling 50 days after Easter. Pentecost commemorates the Holy Spirit empowering the Apostles to preach, signaling the start of the Church's global mission.
The Risen Lord appears to the Apostles behind locked doors, breathes the Holy Spirit upon them, and grants them the authority to forgive and retain sins.
