    Celebrated fifty days after Easter, Pentecost marks the coming of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles gathered in the Upper Room with the Virgin Mary.

    The clergy explained that the celebration also highlighted the role of the Holy Spirit as a source of strength, wisdom and courage for believers. Represented through symbols such as the Consoler, Divine Fire and the Dove, the Holy Spirit remains a sign of God’s living presence bringing peace, renewal and unity among the faithful.

Several couples expressed gratitude for the opportunity to regularise their unions through a dignified collective ceremony.
