Today the Church celebrates Pentecost Sunday. The assigned readings for the Mass during the day are Acts 2:1-11; 1 Corinthians 12:3b-7, 12-13; and John 20:19-23. The Responsorial Psalm is from Psalm 104 (Psalm 104:1, 24, 29-31, 34 ).

The Gospel reading is as follows:
On the evening of that first day of the week, when the doors were locked, where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, "Peace be with you." When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you." And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit. Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained."
