[:it]Discorso del Santo Padre Giovanni Paolo II alla vigilia di Pentecoste ’98
"Venne all'improvviso dal cielo un rombo, come di vento che si abbatte gagliardo, e riempì tutta la casa dove si trovavano. Apparvero loro lingue come di fuoco che si dividevano e si posarono su ciascuno di loro; ed essi furono tutti pieni di Spirito Santo" (At 2, 2-3).
