Pentecost

Gospel John 20:19-23

A reading from the Gospel of John.
          (Sign of the cross on forehead, lips and heart)

In the evening, the disciples were gathered in a room.
They had locked the doors
because they were afraid of the people
who had crucified Jesus.
Jesus came and stood in the room and said,
            “Peace be with you!”
Then he showed them his hands and his side.
The disciples were filled with joy when they saw the Lord.
Jesus said again,
            “Peace be with you!”
Then he breathed on the disciples and said to them,
            “I give you the Holy Spirit.
            If you forgive the sins of anyone, they are forgiven.
            If you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.”
