The EWTN Novena to the Holy Spirit and the Silence on Modernist Apostasy
EWTN portal reports that EWTN is launching a pray-along novena to the Holy Spirit leading up to Pentecost, featuring daily meditations and consecration prayers. EWTN Chaplain Father John Paul Mary, MFVA, explained that the novena is based on the apostles’ gathering in the Upper Room with the Blessed Virgin Mary, awaiting the Holy Spirit. He emphasized the Holy Spirit’s role in salvation and transforming believers into “other Christs.” The article also references the Divine Mercy Novena, which originates from Sister Faustina Kowalska, canonized in 2000. While the novena itself is rooted in Scripture and tradition, the article’s context within the post-conciliar landscape raises critical questions about the integrity of such devotions.
